Iranian army receives new strategic drones

Tehran, IRNA – A large number of combat, reconnaissance, strike, and radar drones produced by the Iranian Defense Ministry have been added to the country's army’s drone fleet.

The strategic drones were delivered to the Iranian army during a ceremony attended by Army Chief Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi and Defense Minister Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Ashtiani on Tuesday.

The unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) include multipurpose Ababil-4 and Ababil-5 drones that can be employed in reconnaissance operations, patrol missions, electronic warfare, data gathering, and aerial combat.

The army also received Arash and Bavar drones with the ability to perform long-range, strike, and precision operations, as well as Krrar drones capable of performing various target, combat and aerial interception missions.

The upgraded UAVs are equipped with self-protection and anti-electronic warfare systems, native multi-navigation and intelligent precision strike weapons, and possess special and up-to-date capabilities in combined use with other weapon systems and network-based operation.

Speaking at the ceremony, General Mousavi said the Islamic Republic relies on its domestic capabilities and the knowledge of the country’s young scientists.

“The duty of the armed forces, including the army, is to strive every day to increase their combat power so that they can complete the assigned missions successfully and in the best possible way,” he said.
