Parts of Iranian Drones Are Made in USA – Ukrainian Defence Intelligence

The Defence Intelligence has reported that some parts of the downed Iranian-made drones were manufactured after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Ukrainian intelligence officers have received information indicating that Iran-manufactured drones were supplied to Russia after February 24th. 

“An airscrew for the Mohajer-6 UAV was manufactured only in February 2022. It was just manufactured. And it also took time to deliver it to the Russian Federation. That is, they were supplied this year”, a Defence Intelligence.

According to him, Iranian-made Mohajer is assembled from parts made in different countries. Most of the components are from the USA. The UAV also has an Austrian-made engine and a Japan-made camera.

“We have not discovered any Russian components inside. One element has an inscription in Farsi (a modern Persian language that has official status in Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan). The visible-range camera is from Japan. The laser rangefinder was made in China. The aerial bomb is Iranian-made”, the Defence Intelligence officer added.

The Defence Intelligence has already transferred all information about manufacturers of components to the partner countries.
