Iran Strengthens Military Capacities, Drone and Missile Production Does Not Stop Despite Attacks

Despite successive bombings by the United States and Israel, Iran continues to increase its military power, according to a spokesperson for Iran’s Armed Forces.

Abolfazl Shekarhi emphasized that the production of missiles and attack drones has never ceased during the confrontation with the US and Israel. According to him, Iran’s defense industry has operated at every stage of the conflict, and missiles go directly from production lines to real operations.

“Missiles are transferred directly from production to operational use, while we are simultaneously replenishing our reserves,” Shekarhi stated.

The Iranian spokesperson also claimed that American intelligence agencies have failed to identify all Iranian missile production facilities, which are dispersed in various areas of the country.

Tehran claims that Iran has faced a greater number of strikes than the United States anticipated. Iranian authorities assure that missile capacities have remained functional and that the country has retained a significant portion of its arsenal.

A CIA assessment made public in May assumed that Iran had preserved about 70% of the missile arsenal it had before the clashes began.

Meanwhile, experts point out that an advantage for Iran is the low production cost of some systems, especially drones, while defending against them can cost much more for the countries aiming to destroy them.
