Bloomberg: Iran produces 50 ballistic missiles per month

Despite months of airstrikes by the U.S. and Israel, Iran’s defense industry continues to operate. Western intelligence estimates that Tehran is capable of producing about 50 ballistic missiles per month, roughly half of its pre-war output.

"Western intelligence estimates that Iran can produce about 50 ballistic missiles a month, roughly half its pre-war capacity, giving it a formidable means of retaliation should hostilities resume," Bloomberg reports.

On Tuesday, U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth reiterated the claim that 80% of Iran’s industrial base has been destroyed. However, the reality contradicts Washington’s assertions: missile production continues, which means that neither sanctions nor bombardments have broken the will of a nation defending its sovereignty.
