TEHRAN, Iran \u2013 February 7 (ONLINE) Iran\u2019s army has unveiled a major underground base to showcase its aerial military capabilities in response to significant joint exercises by the United States and Israel.<\/p>\n

State television on Tuesday showed footage of a variety of fighter jets and military drones at the base, dubbed the \u201cEagle 44\u201d, the location of which remains unknown.<\/p>\n

It said the base is dug in the mountains to protect it from ammunition dropped from US strategic bombers that are capable of penetrating defences.<\/p>\n

The unveiling, which was attended by top military officials, comes less than two weeks after the US and Israel held their largest-ever joint drill, using thousands of troops and dozens of aircraft in addition to naval vessels and artillery systems in what was widely seen as a message to Iran amid rising tensions.<\/p>\n

That joint drill had in turn come days after Iran held wide-ranging exercises to showcase its military readiness.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe they hadn\u2019t received Iran\u2019s message [with that exercise] correctly. Iran is now sending a message again. This is the sound of rumbling from within the mountains,\u201d the state television reporter said, as a fighter jet moved in a tunnel behind him.<\/p>\n

State television showed footage of fighter jets taking off to conduct drill missions during day and night, adding that \u201cthe message of these operations is that now we are the absolute air power in the region\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
