Russia Gives Iran 140 Million, Nato Weapons In Exchange For Drones by Globetech(m): 7:36pm On Nov 08, 2022
According to Sky News, a security source claimed that Russia transferred 140 million euros in cash and a selection of captured British and American weapons to Iran in exchange for dozens of deadly drones for its war in Ukraine.


A Russian Military aircraft secretly transported cash and three samples of ammunition – a British NLAW anti-tank missile, a Javelin anti-tank missile and a Stinger anti-aircraft missile – to an airfield in Tehran in the early hours of August 20. He told Sky News, who spoke on condition of anonymity to share sensitive information.


The source said that the weapons were part of a shipment of British and American military equipment destined for the Ukrainian army “which fell into the hands of Russia.”

A Western intelligence source told Sky News that the transfer took place on August 20 at Tehran airport, and he estimated that the IRGC would reverse engineer the received weapons "for future wars."

The current drones being supplied by Iran to Russia are made from the reverse engineering made by the Iranian engineers on the USA drone captured by Iran few years back. grin grin grin

Is that one now a news?
USA paid millions of dollars to acquired USSR fighter jets during cold war.
USSR pilot that flew to USA base in SK, was immediately offered asylum and USA government moved the MiG jet straight to USA.
Turkey transferred Russian made def system supplied to UAE, that was captured in Libya to NATO base in Turkey for further study.
Russia took many Turkish drones captured in Syria to Russia.

The most talked About Iranian kamikaze drone shares no features with any US drone. The drones have no optical devices (cameras) on them. Unlike the US Kamikaze drone-Switch Blade, which has optical device on it. The drones are mini cruise missile. Russia installs it navigation system (GLONASS) on them. The drone is different.

Ignorance on rampage. So anytime you hear about Iranian drone what comes to mind is the Shahed 171 Simorgh that Iran reversed engineered from the U.S RQ-170 Sentinel lols. Well, Iran had been building drones even before the RQ-170 sentinel 2011 incident. Iran started building drones 40yrs ago during the Iran-Iraq war and Iran has since gained experience in drone building. Iran was the first country to build and make use of Kamikaze/suicide drones in war.

Iran today has different array of drones in its inventory that bears no semblance to U.S drones.

Jamming and spoofing U.S drone in 2011 was a great feat for them. It demonstrated to the world the electronic warfare capability of the Islamic republic and by reversing the drone to make a copy of it is another great feat and I believe every country would want to lay hold of technology of its enemy to study it and that was what Iran did and it will do it again when the opportunity shows up. Iran is a drone power.

You like to type too much trash, unneeded information. Iran made fast advancement on drone technology after capturing USA drone and these ones they're supplying Russian are made based on the reverse engineering of it
