Much of the site was already in place before 2005. Two tunnel entrances were added later, with the first visible signs of construction appearing in 2010 and 2017. In total, the complex contains five tunnel entrances, along with two vertical launch shafts in its older tunnel section. Elsewhere at the base, at least 19 depot entrances are visible. In one aerial image, a missile transport vehicle can be seen near one of them. Jam’s location gives it direct reach across the Gulf: the base is about 300 kilometers from the Saudi coast, 220 kilometers from Bahrain. An analysis of a video aired by Iranian state television identified a Qiam-1 missile at the Jam base. The liquid-fuel missile has a reported range of about 800 km. https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-16/po1kduva/Screenshot-2026-09-16-at-8.08.21-AM.png Open-source satellite imagery of the suspected IRGC's missile base near Haji Abad reveals this development. Although Tehran has in recent years showcased several underground complexes (dubbed ‘missile cities’) – complete with cavernous launch silos – they have not included the Haji Abad structures. While Iran’s ballistic-missile designs are road mobile, Tehran also deploys some in hardened static launch sites. https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-15/rg5dtgt6/Screenshot-2026-09-15-at-6.23.29-PM.png The Panj Peleh base was heavily struck during the 12-day war.

Construction on them began in 2005. Four more tunnel entrances were later built in the northern part of the complex. Construction of two of them began in 2020, while the other two were built from 2022 onward. https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-15/r56zrvxs/Screenshot-2026-09-15-at-2.55.55-PM.png https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-15/n7frj289/Screenshot-2026-09-15-at-3.24.03-PM.png The Garmsar missile-related facility is a strategic military and industrial site located about 14 km northwest of Garmsar in Semnan Province, Iran. Built and expanded since the 2010s, it forms a key part of Iran's north-central missile production chain — focusing on solid and liquid-fuel components — and has been targeted in regional military strikes. https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-15/rwj1ytxl/Screenshot-2026-09-15-at-6.14.28-PM.png The Amand base or Al-Zahra garrison/base, is also known as the northern Tabriz “missile city,” The site stretches roughly 4 kilometers from east to west. It includes clusters of tunnels dug into the mountainside and multiple halls and support buildings spread across the compound. It resembles the Khorramabad base in western Iran in terms of In layout and function. Like Khorramabad, the Al-Zahra complex appears to be one of the IRGC’s older missile-storage sites. https://media.assettype.com/gulfnews/2026-09-15/s9h5dy2v/Screenshot-2026-09-15-at-6.06.53-PM.png The Mobarakeh complex is located about 30 kilometers south of Isfahan, in the Mobarakeh area.
