Iran is reportedly producing up to 50 ballistic missiles monthly, according to Western intelligence officials cited by Times of Israel. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has unveiled an underground ‘missile city’ facility as part of the escalation.

Western intelligence estimates the Islamic Republic currently possesses approximately 1,700 ballistic missiles in its arsenal. The development comes amid rising regional tensions and Iran’s stated commitment to expand its military capabilities.

This escalation follows Iran’s vow that ‘not a single particle’ of enriched nuclear material will leave the country, with the IRGC threatening retaliation against the United States. Russia has previously offered to remove uranium from Iran as part of potential diplomatic negotiations, though Tehran has resisted such arrangements.

The missile production figures represent a significant increase in Iran’s military output and underscore the regime’s determination to strengthen its ballistic missile programme despite international scrutiny.
