very dispersed. 25-30 separate locations across the country

waste of missiles by corrupt Generals/politicians who are trying to destroy Iranian inventory before the next round.

Iran has waste more missiles in testing than it fired on Israel after the first week of the war.

So I don’t see Iran traveling long distances for these tests but does that mean each test is near a underground facility for missiles

50 missiles per month

I guess they are liquid fuel

In theory is it possible for Iran to be producing missiles entirely underground, which means that no matter how much the US bombs it, their supply of missiles (and drones) can never be strangled via airpower?

7 day average of flow through Strait of Hormoz is down around 30% in recent weeks

Yet loadings remained the same. So either shut in/storage has to occur or crossings will resume.

Maybe due for another money plane to Rezaei’s and Qalibaf’s bank accounts?

most of them are near missile bases, yes

An Iranian report claims the strikes DESTROYED 112 sections and 60 laboratories at the Rehovot research institute.

The report cites Israeli television channels 11 and 12:
• $1 BILLION in direct damage.
• 40% of joint military contracts CANCELED.
• 150 scientists LEFT Israel and terminated their contracts.

Most of the missiles tested were solid ones.

Yes and no.

There isn’t a single country in the world producing solid fuel underground. Iran has demonstrated the ability with an underground pilot facility in Syria that was raided by Israeli Special forces. However, volume was low there and not nearly as sophisticated missiles produced.

For Iran it will likely take several years to build a solid state underground site (likely dispersed among smaller sites) to reach pre war capacity.

There is still the other problem of sourcing precursor fuels which come from China on giant fertilizer ships. Iran can source liquid propellant domestically, but it relies on China for large scale solid propellant precursors due to China industrial capacity having the lowest cost production.
