IRGC Unveils Underground Naval Missile Base 500 Meters Deep in Persian Gulf Before Trump's Second Term
Jan 18, 2025, 06:02 PM
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has unveiled a new underground naval missile base at an undisclosed location in the Persian Gulf. The facility, located 500 meters below the surface, is designed to house offensive vessels equipped with missiles. The unveiling occurred two days before the start of Donald Trump's second term as president, amid expectations of rising tensions with the United States. IRGC Chief Commander Hossein Salami visited the base during war games, emphasizing its role in enhancing Iran's naval capabilities. The facility includes tunnels with rows of Taregh-class radar-evading speedboats, which can launch cruise missiles. This development comes as Iran continues military exercises, including drills defending nuclear installations against simulated attacks.
