Iranian Mystery Facility discovered - What is this?

It definitely appears to be military.

In a mission last night, we overflew this facility in Hueys. This facility was not part of the mission and there were no ground units there.

Even so, my AI gunners opened up on the bunkers with the chimneys like there was no tomorrow.

Coords in the screenshot but this is Southwest of Sarkhun, which is found when you go North from Bandar Abbas AB.

It was very interesting, and I wondered if any of you S2 types would like to speculate on what it could be.

The mystery is solved. At least the shooting part. The mission designer said that he might have put infantry there.

Upon checking, that was indeed the case. So the shooting is explained.

But that aside - the nature of this facility is still an open question.

Weapons storage facility? The bunkers on the bottom left look like something used to store explosives.

Don't know, but here it is;

27°22'52.8"N 56°19'53.9"E

40RDR34012885

On the other side of the highway Google Maps lists a "Petroleum Industry Complex", maybe it belongs to that ?

I wonder on how many Intelligence Agency computers my IP lit up after so much googling for military and industrial facilities in Iran :lol:

It is directly opposite Gameron Petro Industry Complex, and may well be part of it.

-edit-;

Beat me to it, but yes I suspect that the site we're looking at is storage for the GPIC.

Thanks guys!

It seems like a cool target on its own as well.

Maybe a chemical or nuclear site!! Great idea for missions. Might make a strike mission with fast air and sf inf on UH1’s!

It is a chicken farm. Don’t you worry. No oil here... LOL

While checking this cool site in the game, I wondered if there were other cool things, and came across this, which is actually on the PG map too, albeit, using existing structures.

But its a uranium mine.

Honestly looks like an unfinished one of the second photo. Appeared in 2012. Looks like some sort of memorial or gardens. Or the Iranians are fascinated with crop circles.

Possibly Aliens though.
