Iranian state media showed off a fleet of drones lined up inside an underground bunker as part of a chilling propaganda video.
Footage, released by the semi-official Fars News Agency, shows the unmanned fleet sitting on rocket launchers and on truck beds, while dramatic background music plays in the background.
Drones lined either side of an aisle leading down a brightly lit tunnel with a variety of Iranian flags.
Cheaper Shahed drones, which cost only a few thousands of dollars to make, are thought to be the drones showcased in the clip, according to the Daily Mail.
Iran has launched the drones across the Middle East as part of retaliatory strikes against the US and Israel following Operations Epic Fury and Lion Roar.
The strikes targeted US military bases in several neighboring countries, including Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Kuwait.
Six US service members were killed in an Iranian drone strike that targeted Kuwait’s Port Shuaiba, where soldiers assigned to the Army Reserve’s 103rd Sustainment Command were stationed.
Capt. Cody Khork, 35, of Florida.; Sgt. 1st Class Noah Tietjens, 42, of Nebraska.; Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor, 39, of Minnesota; and Sgt. Declan Coady, 20, Iowa, died in the attack.
The Iranian military was decimated by the initial strikes in the joint operation on Saturday after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and roughly 40 other senior officials were killed inside a fortified compound in the heart of Tehran.
Despite the large loss of leadership, Iran has continued launching the drones and missiles, with a majority of weapons being intercepted and shot down by neighboring countries anti-air defenses.
On Wednesday, the Israeli Defense Forces announced a F-35I fighter jet shot down a Russian-made Iranian jet.
The F-35I fighter jet known as “Adir,” which translates to “Mighty One” in Hebrew,” clashed with the Iranian Air Force YAK-130 over Tehran, Israeli military officials confirmed Wednesday.
