The Shahroud Space Center, or the main building of the missile testing and production base in Iran’s Semnan province, was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike. It is also the same center from which Iran fired hundreds of missiles at Israel in April and October. Israeli fighter jets flew over a distance of 2,000 kilometers to bomb these bases.
The destroyed main building of Shahroud Center is clearly visible in satellite images. Earlier this month, Israel was attacked by about 200 missiles from the Shahrude Space Center. Most missiles are launched from here. But there has been no word from the Iranian government or the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps about the damage to the center.

80% of the ballistic missile’s solid fuel is gone
Just before the Israeli attack, Iran only knew that the Israeli attack would occur in the provinces of Ilam, Khuzestan and Tehran. But the idea is not that Israel would go to the rural area of ​​Semnan and target their missile sites and space centers. In this attack, 80% of the solid fuel of the Iranian ballistic missile was destroyed. This means he can no longer attack as hard as before.
Shahroud Space and Missile Center is 370 kilometers away from Tehran.
Fabian Hintz, a missile expert at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, said it was clear Iran had suffered huge losses. But it’s hard to estimate how many. Shahrud base is located 370 kilometers northeast of Tehran. The Imam Khamenei Space Center is also located here. Shahrude’s largest building was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike. In addition, the Parchin military base was also damaged.

Hypersonic missiles were stored in that destroyed center!
One thing is for sure, because if you look closely at the satellite images, you will see tall mounds of dirt surrounding the demolished buildings. This means there is something terrible hiding in this building. Which is covered. That is, if an explosion occurs, there should be no direct damage to surrounding buildings. This means dangerous explosives are stored here.
Iran’s Khyber Shock ballistic missiles or Fateh-1 missiles may also be stored here. Because they attack at hypersonic speeds. Iran used them in attacks in April and October. The air defense system protecting the center was also destroyed by Israeli airstrikes.
