Recently, nearly two weeks after the joint airstrikes by the United States and Israel against Iran, the US Secretary of War (Secretary of Defense) Haggis spoke at the Pentagon on Friday (March 13), stating that Iran no longer has the capability to produce more missiles.
Haggis said in a press conference, “As of two days ago, Iran’s entire ballistic missile manufacturing system – including all enterprises producing missile components – has been paralyzed and destroyed, with buildings, industrial parks, and production lines nationwide all demolished.”
“We are shooting down and destroying the missiles that the enemy still has in stock; but more importantly, we are ensuring that they do not have the capability to produce more missiles. Their production lines, military factories, and defense innovation centers have all been decimated,” he said.
Haggis also emphasized that in addition to the destruction of the missile industry, Iran’s defense industrial base is also on the verge of complete destruction.
“Soon, very soon, all of Iran’s defense industry companies will be destroyed,” he said. “As we continue to enhance all forms of combat, we are utilizing them to confuse, disrupt, and deceive our enemies.”
When discussing the acquisition of Iranian air superiority by the US and Israeli forces, the Pentagon official stated that the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Iranian regime can only look up and see planes bearing the American flag and the Star of David (referring to the Israeli flag), which is the most terrifying nightmare for the evil regime.
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Cain, said in the press conference that Friday would be “the day with the most impactful kinetic strikes in the operational theater. Central Command will continue to strike Iran’s ballistic missiles and unmanned capabilities to ensure they no longer pose a threat to US military bases or partner countries.”
“We are continuing to destroy the Iranian navy to ensure freedom of navigation. This means targeting Iran’s mine-laying capability and destroying its ability to attack merchant ships,” he said. “We will also set our sights on Iran’s defense industrial bases to prevent them from rebuilding capabilities that could potentially harm US interests or those of partner countries.”
