Shiraz
29°36'54"N 52°32'19"E

According to some reports, Iran has missile manufacturing facilities at plants near Islaker, Maghdad, Pairzan, Seman, and Shiraz. It is claimed that the companies building Scud missiles, including Defense Industries, Shahid, Bagheri Industrial Group, and Shahid Hemat Industrial Group, are also involved in Iran's production of chemical weapons.

The NIMA GEOnet Names Server (GNS) is aware of three places with this name, and the one located at 29°36'54"N 52°32'19"E seems as good a guess as any, in the absence of additional information.
