An IRGC Aerospace Force missile operator in an interview tells about his and his colleagues’ experience during the US-Iran war inside the underground missile complex. He says Iran’s underground missile tunnels remained fully stocked and operational throughout the 12-day and 40-day wars, despite repeated airstrikes. Some personnel spent 25 days underground, carrying out back-to-back launches with barely any rest. Some were killed at launch sites, while others continued firing missiles from nearby launchers just minutes after Israeli or US strikes. One of the personnel lost his father during US bombing. He couldn't even attend his father's funeral, and it wasn't until 7 days after the burial that he was able to leave. He recounts: “When our unmarried personnel were inside, the married men would tell them, "You stay inside, we'll go out." There was genuinely a competition among us to fight and destroy the forces of arrogance. He says bunker buster bombs failed to do any damage the tunnels or missile stockpiles, with many bombs failing to even detonate. He also said Iran fought largely with missiles developed in the 2000s and 2010s, while newer, more powerful missiles with larger explosive warheads have yet to be unveiled and could be demonstrated in the next combat. He says Iran’s missile readiness is now significantly greater than before the wars.

NEW: Iran unveils new underground missile complex The unveiling was accompanied with the visit of Iran’s Chief of Staff & the Commander of the Khatam al-Anbyia, and General Seyed Majid Mousavi, Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force. The complex houses many various missile types and weapons, including medium-range ballistic missiles and long-range anti-ship cruise missiles (strong message).
