Newest footages of Iran's underground missile bases

well, may I ask what was the purpose of send invitation to media when you tested you nukes at the time of cold war? was there also part of entertainment and business ?
I/We didn't test nukes, The Netherlands never had any.

As for the US (or France, UK, etc), well, would you kindly document that media were invited to attent nuclear tests during the cold war, and how many times?

United States: 1,054 tests by official count (involving at least 1,149 devices).
Soviet Union: 715 tests (involving 969 devices) by official count, plus 13 unnumbered test failures.
United Kingdom: 45 tests (21 in Australian territory, plus 24 in the United States at the Nevada Test Site as part of joint test series) 43 safety tests (the Vixen series) are not included in that number, though safety experiments by other countries are.
France: 210 tests by official count
 
We started out from government released 'news' features, showing off a particular portion of Iran's war preparations and 'arsenal'. You fail to point out any similar phenomena from e.g. the US government, USSR/RF government etc. You are confounding the issue by bringing in the entertainment industry.Which is just that, entertainment.

What commercial entertainment features showed the US's ICBM arsenal and actual drill during the cold war? Because that is the comparable situation.

Argo is from 2012. And has nothing to do with showing off the US arsenal by the US government

The Day After is a TV movie (not a cinema flick) from 1983, the height of the cold war, and is an anti-war/nuclear story. The story follows several citizens and people they encounter after a nuclear attack (a counterstrike on the US). The film's narrative is structured as a before-during-after scenario: the first segment introduces the various characters and their stories, the second shows the nuclear disaster itself, and the third details the effects of the fallout on the characters. The Day After was the idea of ABC Motion Picture Division president Brandon Stoddard, who, after watching The China Syndrome (a 1979 American thriller film that tells the story of a television reporter and her cameraman who discover safety coverups at a nuclear power plant, was so impressed that he envisioned creating a film exploring the effects of nuclear war on the United States. Samuels created the title The Day After to emphasize that the story was not about a nuclear war itself, but the aftermath.

Count Down ?
This one? Countdown (2011 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia > irrelevant
Or this one? Countdown (2012) - IMDb > equally irrelevant
Or did you mean The Final Countdown, a 1980 alternate history science fiction film about a modern aircraft carrier that travels through time to a day before the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor? There is nothing shown there, that's wasn't already know or could be known for decades by anyone who picked up a book or journal on the US Navy.

None of this has anything to do with what this thread started out with.

Silent reader are just that, silent readers. Don't pretend to know there are any, or their number, because you have no way of knowing. And therefor, you can't pretend to speak for them.

This is how we got to this point:

You said:

movies are not put out by (US) government

And I showed you Pentagon funds movies. What does the armed forces of a country have to do with entertainment business if not advertising ideas that are in their favor? i.e. propaganda

You said:

If you claim scenes from some movies are actual drills, please document the source of that information.

You wanted an example and I showed you a movie which has used scenes from actual missile lunch tests and drills. Sorry if I don't have time to dig out more and find more examples for you. You can find them yourself.

I refer you to your own quote:

But why would a strong country want to advertise like this? Wouldn't potential opponents already be aware of this through other means? So, imho, the show is mostly for internal consumption. But doesn't that suggests there are people on the inside that need convincing or reinforcing?

The point that Iran is showing off something that its opponents already know was strange to you and you inferred it is for internal consumption. I gave you examples where US government funded movies show off things about their armed forces that we already know.

Yes we know all those things but they keep showing them off in many many Pentagon funded movies. Even if it means Tomcats go against Zero fighters or defeating an alien race with tech beyond humans imagination by a retired 2nd world war battleship, just to make sure the idea of their army's invincibility sinks inside the minds of their own population and those of other countries.

My point is, there is no difference between Iran and US in this case. One has Hollywood on his side and ask their filmmakers and artists to engineer their propaganda. Iran doesn't have that luxury so simply shows you the drill itself.

Well I'm not a military historian but out of my mind I can say operating crossroad was held in the presence of media of many countries ,also a lot more than what yo believe all of those countries released the footage of their nuclear test to the media.
 
Let me assure you, Zarif is much more Iranian than people like you, who do nothing but hurting this country. Ironically, you people best serve interests of Israel, US and UK.

So only because you are born in Iran (I assumed you are) doesn't mean you are a 'real' Iranian, maybe if you move to Israel, you'll have your interests best served.

and who are you to "Assure" me about anything !?
Actions are louder than words ....
 
very intelligent, what if they do the same? and before replying take a close look at your flag!
for several reasons they wont do it, while they have done the worst.
you looked at it one sided and then asked a wrong question. our actions is just a response.
what Zionists and their puppets have done and are doing 24/7 is way beyond of what you are afraid of.
so a better question is whether our action is enough or not.
 
Those first pics look like the scenes of a horror movie
