Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) staged a dramatic live-fire drill simulating the destruction of a replica of Al Dhafra Air Base — a key U.S. military hub. The exercise, part of “Combined Exercise 1404,” featured ballistic missiles, drone swarms, and electronic warfare units targeting a mock American base along Iran’s southern coast. <br /> <br />Iranian state media released footage showing precision strikes using Fateh, Qiam, Emad, Ghadr, and Khorramshahr-4 missile systems, alongside new tandem-charge bunker-buster warheads claimed to Penetrate up to 20 meters of reinforced concrete. Commanders warned that “no hostile base in the region remains safe,” signaling a direct message to U.S. President Donald Trump ahead of sensitive regional talks. <br /> <br />With simulated saturation attacks designed to overwhelm Patriot defenses and U.S. forces reinforcing their Gulf presence, analysts fear the confrontation between Washington and Tehran could edge closer to open conflict. <br /> <br />#IranMissileDrill #IRGCDrill #IranVsUS #GulfTensions #AlDhafraAirBase #TrumpIranTensions #IranMissiles #MiddleEastCrisis #USIranConflict #BallisticMissiles #DroneSwarm #BreakingNews #IranMilitary #USMilitaryGulf #BunkerBuster #IRGCWarning #GulfSecurity<br /><br />~PR.460~HT.408~ED.420~GR.508~
