    Iran conducts several war games every year as part of its military self-sufficiency program that started in 1992, and frequently unveils new weapons during the drills. In recent exercises, Iran unveiled underground missile silos that it says are capable of multiple launches.

    Tehran says its longest-range missiles, Shahab-3 and Sajjil-2, can travel up to 1,240 miles - putting Israel, U.S. bases in the Gulf region and parts Europe within reach.
