Iran rebuilds Eagle 44 hardened underground airbase after repeated strikes

The post describes continued construction and rapid runway/taxiway restoration at Iran’s Eagle 44 underground airbase, including clearing wreckage and removing runway-denial obstacles after multiple strike rounds. The novelty is the operationalization and resilience of a hardened, mountain-carved aircraft shelter/tunnel complex intended to protect fighters, drones, and potentially missile assets while maintaining sortie generation under attack.
