Are you talking about Pakistan's nuclear arsenal?

Interestingly this kind of complexes are not made to withstand airpower deployed bunker busters, but designed against blast pressure levels that occur due to nearby (~100m CEP) nuclear explosions.

They become as useless as a empty ICBM silo once all their missiles are launched.

Until a SEAD/DEAD campaign neutralizes IADS and reach those bases, they have already completed their mission.

Their benefit is the crude and simple exposed parts and blast deflection, making them much less sensitive than a ICBM silo.

So hiding them is not the plan. Keeping operational capability after x number of ICBM/SLBM delivered thermonuclear weapons (300-500kt) is the design criteria.

Iran has no illusions that Israel and the U.S would resort to nuclear weapons, once these complexes start to launch their conventional missile arsenal. Especially Israel would soon realized that damage from Irans conventional BM arsenal threatens its existence.

iran should assassinate some high profile israelis to prove its worth.

Much easier said than done and quite hard to do now more than ever due to just how locked down and tight Israel's defenses are both externally and internally. The Israelis are roaming around constantly on their borders searching/recon with the Americans providing consistent intel updates on regional movements with a keen focus on Iran/Iranian affiliated allies. Dare I say, there isn't much overt movement Iran can pull-off with out the Israelis and Americans knowing every-bit of it but there are ways to get around it admittedly.

It would require a level of infiltration into critical Israeli infrastructure/inner-workings that I just don't think Iran can manage, outside of that one now arrested former Israeli official of some kind who was supposedly spying for Iran. Speaking quite frankly, what Israeli would go out of their way to help Iran assassinate one of their own? Maybe if their is a politician or vying factions in Israel that would gain from the death of a political or institutional rival, then they could ask or be approached by Iran for some sort of "assistance" in killing a group or individual but Iran going about it on their own via covert means is a difficult task.

Idk, just my thoughts, could be wrong.

What will settle the score is a high profile assassination. Only the killing of figures like Netanyahu, Pompeo or Trump will quench the thirst for revenge effectively and massively boost Iran's power and morale. There are many ways to carry out such a plan even with all the security guarding 24/7. What i have been saying all the time is Iran's lack of response is its lack of will to carry out such a deed. The ability is there.. Iranian intelligence agencies have enough men,money,resources to effectively carry out such a plan. Let's hope the pride and power of Iran will be proven once more.

I do have some reservations about the actual ability to carry out such a task but yes, I do agree that the largest stumbling block for Iran is finding the will to go through with a such a plan.

This really should be in the threads already created regarding the murder at terrorist hands and how to deal with the roaches responsible.

There are already multiple threads running on the assassination issue, so keep this topic on track.

Khorgo UG Missile Base looks to be what is referred to as a nuclear hardened missile base built with carousel design in mind.
