Additional damage. On the missile front, one of Iran’s key missile bases at Khorramabad, it’s a major underground missile base believed to house many missile silos. This is a before picture. And then another image. Thank you, Vantor, for providing us these images. You see after, the tunnel to that underground facility was struck.
The U.S. sanctions on Pakistan’s missile program also indicate that the United States needs to pay more attention to the developments occurring in the South Asia landscape which include (1) the development of Pakistan’s capabilities and if the sanctions deter, (2) China’s role in the missile development going forward, (3) Pakistan’s ...

The Missile Defense Project at CSIS looks at a wide range of policy, program, and strategic issues related to missile defense. Technological and geopolitical factors have driven increased global supply and demand for high-velocity, unmanned, missile-based weapons and their corresponding counters.
Missile Defense As hypersonic missiles, cruise missiles, and unmanned aircraft systems become increasingly common on the battlefield, focusing on the full spectrum of missile threats is crucial, especially as the missile threat from China and Russia grows. CSIS research seeks innovative means to counter the full spectrum of global missile threats.
The proliferation of missile threats has made air and missile defense interceptors the table stakes for entry into future conflicts, forcing the Department of Defense to either ante up and buy the necessary interceptors, or fold on its regional interests and bear the consequences.
Nuclear-powered cruise missiles are not a new idea—they’re just a bad idea. While Russia’s Burevestnik missile is grabbing headlines, it does not fundamentally change Russia’s ability to hold the U.S. homeland at risk or the strategic balance between the two states.
The released data show a pronounced decline in launches after the first few days. This drop occurred as the U.S. and Israeli strike campaign actively attacked Iran’s missile and drone inventories, manufacturing capacity, and launchers; the Israel Defense Forces reported 70 percent of Iran’s ballistic missile launchers were disabled by Day 16.
To help navigate the wide world of missilery, the CSIS Missile Defense Project recently released a newly upgraded website to track and explain both missile threats and missile defenses alike.
Epic Fury: The Campaign Against Iran’s Missile & Nuclear ... - CSIS
Key Concept: Firepower Strike Firepower strikes are an emerging concept that cuts across multiple states. They involve large, combined attacks by air/land/sea launched cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and attack drones – often supported by a larger array of information effects – used to attack military and/or civilian targets. In Russian doctrine, there is a concept called noncontact ...
Russia uses a mix of expensive, high-precision, and legacy missiles for daily pressure on Ukraine. As ballistic missiles remain the deadliest, Ukraine should bolster its high-speed defenses to protect infrastructure and shape negotiations.
New Atlas: US Air Force breaks ground on next-gen nuclear missile silo

AOL: Arkansas' Abandoned Nuclear Missile Silo Has Transformed Into A Nostalgic Rental
Affordable mass has become the watchword of defense modernization, be it swarms of drones or satellite constellations. What could such an approach mean for air and missile defense? Networks of passive, proliferated sensors could make one meaningful contribution.
MSN: Inside Iran's 'missile cities': Why these secret bunkers are strategic nightmare for US
Iran has built a vast, hidden network of underground missile launch facilities that can fire ballistic missiles without any surface activity, and this is what keeps Pentagon planners awake at night.
Inside Iran's 'missile cities': Why these secret bunkers are strategic nightmare for US
MSN: Iran built underground 'missile cities' for years. Now, it's shifting tracks
Iran spent years constructing underground bunkers to shield its vast missile arsenal from destruction. Now, days after US and Israel declared a unilateral war, Tehran's strategy looks like a mistake.
