Iran moves missile and drone production to underground cities

Iran has established underground cities and facilities for missile production to ensure the continued manufacture and development of weapons, even during wartime, according to Revolutionary Guard spokesman Brigadier General Hossein Mohabbey.

Speaking at a press conference, as reported by Al Arabiya, Mohabbey said, "We were able to quickly move missile and drone production from above ground to underground. Just as we previously had underground missile cities for storage and readiness, we have now created underground cities for missile production."

He added that Iran would not allow its enemies to prevent it from producing and developing weapons "even for a moment," noting that Tehran has developed significant flexibility, enabling it to relocate missile production lines underground. This, he said, guarantees the continued manufacture of missiles and drones even amid ongoing conflict and bombardment.

The spokesman also revealed that a new missile city and a series of major achievements will be unveiled this week, emphasizing that the localization of aerospace technologies is among Iran's most significant accomplishments in this field. He stressed that Iran has transformed from an importer of weapons to a producer and exporter.
