He then continued to describe that the operation base of the force takes place in what "seems to be a sandy desert somewhere" with "a secret circular hangar bay door opening for an advanced Harrier-like jet to land".

He, furthermore, noted that the footage also shows "the COBRA organization have taken microscopic robot nanites".
