Iran is seeking to prove to the world that not only has its ballistic missile program been kept intact even after the intense bombing campaign of Operation Epic Fury, but it has even expanded domestic production.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has newly announced and claimed that it has expanded its missile production capacity deep underground, despite the US-Israeli war which in large part targeted its missile capability and nuclear development sites in an effort to degrade and destroy them.

The IRGC has hailed that it has transferred production processes from surface facilities to underground facilities, allowing the manufacturing of missiles and drones to persist even if Iran is bombarded by new attacks.

Iran’s Armed Forces Chief of Staff General Abdollahi has emphasized, "Advanced missiles will surprise enemies with their battlefield impact."

And IRGC spokesman Brigadier General Hossein Mohebbi described a process of moving beyond just underground missile storage complexes to establish "missile production cities" deep under the ground.

The IRGC spokesmanhas interestingly also issued the following list of the IRGC Aerospace Force's major achievements via state media - many of these having come even during a state of war with the US:

All of this of course greatly complicates things further in terms of Washington aims (even if merely half of the above list was legitimately accomplished).

Among the key objectives of the US is to destroy Iran's ballistic missile arsenal - a goal which has clearly not been accomplished. Given the missile cities expanse, this US objective is a tall order that is unlikely to ever actually be accomplished - short of some kind of nightmarish boots on the ground and many years-long invasion and occupation scenario.
