A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps announced that the IRGC Navy plans to stage massive naval wargames in the near future, Fars News Agency reported.

Lieutenant Commander of IRGC Navy Rear Admiral Javad Mashidi said the IRGC naval forces will stage wargames soon, and added that the necessary equipment has already been supplied for the drills.

“The IRGC Navy is fully prepared to carry out the maneuvers and will once again display its military might to protect Iran's borders,” the commander stated.

Earlier this month, the IRGC Aerospace Force wrapped up three days of massive missile drills, codenamed Payambar-e Azam 7 (The Great Prophet 7).

Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh said at the time that the IRGC has detailed contingency plans to hit 35 U.S. bases in the region in case of a conflict.
