Press TV – April 2, 2026
Iran’s missile production at key strategic bases is proceeding with notable consistency, according to a report.
The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) reported that production capacity at strategic sites is steadily increasing, alongside the continued deployment of ballistic missile launchers.
According to the report, the “Etemad” missile is an upgraded version of the “Emad,” with improvements derived from operational experience gained during the “True Promise” missions.
The report also highlighted significant advancements in guidance systems, designed to evade missile defense networks.
It pointed to footage from Tuesday night’s aerospace operation by the IRGC, which showed a missile successfully passing through three interceptor missiles and striking its target with precision.
The reporter emphasized that accumulated experience and innovative thinking within the armed forces are driving the continued growth of the country’s missile capabilities.
On February 28, the United States and the Israeli regime launched an unprovoked war on Iran, assassinating former Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei as well as several top military commanders.
Iran’s response has been decisive and strong. The Iranian Armed Forces have been engaged in daily waves of missile and drone operations against US interests across West Asia and Israeli positions in the occupied territories.

Congrats Iran !!!
Truly an advanced culture/nation whereby next generation weaponry is created asap literally “on the fly” using data etc. gathered from current battle engagements.
.
The USA dinosaur is stuck in WW2 mindset quagmire… relying on fighter jets..aircraft carriers..troop deployment etc.
Trumpstein says he took out Iran’s airforce and navy.
Well its true they are “gone”…but long ago…nothing to do with head bullsh*ters Trumpstein and Hegseth.
Any one with (2) brain cells to rub together could see that focus on drones etc was the future re wars..so Iran’s military of 1 million + troops…other guided weaponry, mines and other UNmanned weapons was sufficient to not just win..but to humiliate the USA.
ie $300,000 Iranian drone can take out a multi -million dollar USA fighter jet.
FROM AI
US fighter jet costs vary widely by model and role, with modern 5th-generation jets costing over $100 million per unit. The F-35A Lightning II is roughly $82.5–$90 million, while the advanced F-22 Raptor’s total production cost is over $350 million. Operational costs are also high, often ranging from $20,000–$40,000 per flight hour, with F-35s costing over $40,000 per hour.
Its been submitted that for every hour of flight time..its take 8+ hours to service them to get ready for the next mission.
If Trumpstein doesn’t find an exit strategy/off ramp soon…..the escalation will get worse , there will be a revolt and Trumpstein arrested……
…..I am quite sure this is a succession plan in the making as we speak. Trumpstein has no way to control the conflict on his own to last anothert 2+ weeks.
Iran will be in charge ……and Trumpstein will be on his knees.
