Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Forces of Iran showed footage from one of its underground missile bases, this was published by the semi-official Military Achievements Media in two videos providing a peak.
The system reloads and feeds Emad medium-range ballistic missiles from underground storage facilities to special rooms for launching missiles from underground.
Likely, it is assumed that while missiles are being launched from underground launch halls, at this time in other underground halls, launchers are being recharged with new missiles from underground storage facilities, which are then fed using a rail system to launch halls for new launches.
The vertically-stowed missile “magazine” appears to bring groups of missiles into position for rapid, consecutive launching from the underground bunker, essentially.
The location of the facility seen in the latest imagery is unconfirmed, but Iran is known to have built underground caves to protect ballistic missiles operated by its Revolutionary Guards Corps in the past.
The Drive provided a short summary on what the system presumably is:
“The thinking behind the system seems to be to allow launches of ballistic missiles in quick succession. Since the missiles on their individual platforms are ready to fire, there is no need to reload individual launchers using a crane or trans-loader. The magazine method would potentially allow many more missiles to be fired from a single bunker while increasing the chances of the outbound missile strike overwhelming anti-ballistic missile defenses.”

As mentioned above, analysts identified the missiles as Emad liquid-fuel, medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBM), a derivative of the Shahab-3.

The Emad is reported to have a range of around 1,000 miles and is considered to be capable of carrying a nuclear warhead if such a capability existed.
The Emad missile was apparently developed around a new re-entry vehicle (RV) fitted with fins to give it increased maneuverability, accuracy, and additional stability.
The missiles on the magazine assembly also appear to be separated by dividers, which could include all the umbilicals and pre-launch test equipment required for them to be fired in an autonomous, or near-autonomous manner.

This is not the first time the underground system is shown, as they could also be seen during a drill back in July 2020.

Oy gevalt… I think I will faint…
Welcome back :)
?
Freinds and infidels!
After failure of planning to air surgery strike on Shushabad by drone aeroplane Bayraktar TB 2, off which I telled you elsewhere, this video give me new ideal! I will asking Sultan Erdogan al Turki to giveing us missile like this, one warhead removed. Jihadi with drone and headchopping knife sitting in warhead spacious, when missile fall on Shushabad he come out and begin shooting and headchoppering. It excellently idea, righteous or wrongeous?
I tell you what replying from Sultan Erdogan.
Takebeer! Muhaysinihu Akbar! Takebeer!
Ilham Aliyev – “Azerbaijan may consider the option of Turkish military support in case of threat to the country”. The Mullahs regime shouldn’t try anything funny. They may lose the Azerbaijani territories they control.
Will you use Turkey to scare Iran…are you that dumb? The whole of Azerbaijan will become Iran and Turks can only watch and cry
I am not Ilham Aliyev. It is clear that his words are aimed at Iran (He also saw the Iranian weapons convoys on the way to the Azeri border). You seem to be an international strategist . LOL.

Iran will absolutely demolish Azerbaijan in less than a day if need be, with turkey helping Aliev or not. It won’t matter. Lets keep things real.
Yes of course. Within days you will conquer the entire Middle East. Obviously. LOL. Amazing how you guys believe the lies of the mullahs regime. You will soon have more Israeli bases to the north, and in a short time Azerbaijan will be re-equipped. I don’t think it is wise for you to threaten the Azeris.
You bring the Israeli’s there, you sgn off on your own death warrant. Make no mistake, Iran will fuck you up if Israeli’s are seen anywhere near the Iran/ Azeri border.
What I like about Israel is that they do, while you are just talking and threatening. It seems that the Iranian Azeris will soon see freedom.
Sure bro…..get off the captagon. It’s fucked your brain. The more you try to counter Iran, the more you lose.
“get off the captagon” – I boycott Hezbollah products.
give iran an excuse and we take asia minor aka turkey and the azerbaijan imposter republic on top
The problem with you guys, is that you are not connected to reality. You believe the threats and the excesses of the mullahs regime . This is very dangerous, especially since there will soon be more Israeli bases north of you.
hahahahaha yoy stoopid mamtu…bark all time….hahhahahaa
bro, nothing worse than killing people, specially if they from your own culture…….but sometimes very bad things need to be done. The turks found that out in the SyRaq. We tried to tell them to stop, and then Obama tried to dismantle turkey……even then we tried to help them or else they were done! Looking back at it, what a waste of time. Iran needs to stop being kind. It’s a useless endeavor! Remember, there was no Russia or Iran or the US or the YPG/ PKK/ PYD/ PJAK in the SyRaq back in 2012…….No ethnic violence, no sectarian bullshit, no killings……but some fools thought they could get away with destroying the social harmony. I’ve never in my life heard of shia sunni bullshit/ violence in Iran, because It don’t exist. Nobody heard of this shit in Syria either, until 2012. Even today 80% of SyAA is proud Sunni muslim.
Iran fucked you in Syria and Iraq…….you got that? Bring it on if you got the balls. Iran will fuck you up. Nothing like throwing hundreds in a death pit…….and there are thousands of them throughout the SyRaq. That’s why you in a small enclave of Idlib now. Rest is Iranian territory.
The Jihadists are allies of the mullahs regime . Two sides of the same extremist Islamist coin.
maybe in your turdo-gan or jew-billy world brah.
No, in the minds of the mullahs regime that supports Hamas.
Yeah, so? You don’t like it cuz yous an Israeli no? You on borrowed time. Just like the apartheid Republic of South Africa. Your time in the region is drawing to a close.
So : The mullahs regime = Hamas = extremist Islamists = jihadists All extreme Islamists garbage. As the Azerbaijanis says: Israeli drones are stronger than the parasites of the mullah regime.
You ain’t no azeri….youz a shyster.
the americans will learn to get lost and never to mess with us again and after that you can rethink about how azeri you really are considering that nobody of you knows what azerbaijan even means you imposters even if you dont get a name change you will change your whole societal approach sooner or later or aliev and his whole structures will get eradicated aswell as everybody who follows the zionist written agenda you might see how that worked out for others such as uae
He ain’t Azeri……they got no balls to talk it up……he’s either a shitbilly or an Israeli.
the father aliev was a pain and a fool and a coward and the son is a fool a coward and a drunkard on top of it all he is a gambler so these alievs are a cancer and either they change their approach or they are dead all together
hahahha you stupid mamtu..Iran brother very STRONK!
All these ballistic missiles are directed toward Israel and America and they all have WMD’s inside them; Corona viruses, Chemical weapons and Nukes.
tammy lies again….”obama’s job is too lie to a nation of liars”. Kiese Laymon u weal obese beggars have 10 million Covid infected stupified idiots. and 260,000 deaths due to the creation of covid in your bioweapons lab in Maryland
What matters is that we control the world. China is doing our job and Putin will soon declare his support to green lgbt parades and clima gender changes and clean windmill energy. Its over cechas.
Russian peacekeepers being deployed to Karabagh now.
more evidence that when Israel USA claim they target Hizbollah they are really bombing sand dunes
Iran has no reason to attack azerbijian, nor any nation—Persians are civilized people and would prefer sanctions to living like hegemonized NATO slaves as do the people in dinmarkistan or the obese automatons in amerika
a hail of those mf jew killers on tel aviv will settle the palestinian issue once and for all – the one state palestinian independent state will see the light of the day while the jews duck and run for the hills, somewhere but not in palestine or the middle east and all middle east countries will have to purge the so called jews from their respective countries, for safety’s sake.
Iran very STRONK!
The Mullahs regime is stronk as you are smart.
