IRGC-AF ballistic missile and drone drills. Use of AI in coordinating drones confirmed. Accuracy of missiles (and suicide drones) = double confirmed.
Simultaneous mass launch of Fateh-class tactical BM (Zolfaqar and Dezful solid-fuel BM - range of 700km and 1000km respectively):
Shahed-161 drones (40% scale copy of RQ-170) flying in AI-controlled formation:

Dezful ballistic missile (Fateh-class; solid-fuel; 1000km range; unveiled in early 2019) on mobile dual-launcher TEL:
Unknown suicide drone - moment before accurate impact on mock AD target:
The same drone was also shown attacking an AD target in co-ordination with another identical suicide drone (co-ordinated by AI).

Beautiful photo of Dezful (separating) RV at terminal velocity moments before impact:
Note: max target speed for Patriot PAC-3 MSE is 1800 m/s.

Incredible display of precision-guided ballistic missile capability.
The next stage of the IRGC-AF missile drills continued today, with mass launches of MRBMs such as Ghadr, Emad and Sejjil (1800-2500km range).
Most notably, a ASBM was successfully used to strike a target 1800km away in the Indian Ocean. The missile apparently landed within 150 km of the USS Nimitz CSG. It's not yet clear what missile was used, but it's possibly an Emad missile with an ARH warhead.
Sejjil-1 solid-fuel MRBM (2000-2500km range):
I will post more high quality photos if / when they become available.
