Brigadier General Mohammad Akraminia, spokesman for the Islamic Republic of Iran Army, said on Tuesday that Iran’s missile and drone production had accelerated, leaving forces with a large stockpile of new equipment.
In an interview with Fars News Agency, Akraminia described reserves of newly developed offensive and defensive weapons.
He said manufacturing continued daily during the 40-day conflict he called the Ramadan war and had since intensified. Some new systems have already been deployed in the field, Akraminia said.
However, he made public disclosure conditional, explaining that the army could unveil them at the “appropriate time and if necessary”. Meanwhile, Akraminia said Iranian forces felt more confident after their wartime experience.

He attributed that confidence to opportunities to assess their own equipment and identify weaknesses in their adversaries’ capabilities.
