Iran says it's replenishing missile, drone launchers at faster rate than before the war

Iran says it is accelerating the production and restoration of its missile and drone launchers following recent attacks by Israel and the United States. According to the commander of the Revolutionary Guards Aerospace Force, the country is now replenishing its systems at a faster pace than before the war that began on February 28.

The statement was released alongside video footage showing the commander inspecting what was described as an underground missile facility. The video included images of drones, missiles and launchers stored below ground, as well as scenes of missile launches. The footage could not be independently verified.

While the United States Defense Secretary recently said that joint strikes had effectively destroyed Iran's missile program and left its military severely weakened, other American officials have suggested that many damaged launchers could be repaired or recovered. Intelligence assessments reported by American media indicate that Iran may still retain access to a significant portion of its missile launchers.
