Tehran, YJC. IRGC Aerospace commander says his personnel are making 2 new RQ170 drones.
Not long after it flew
the RQ170, the IRGC air force says it is building two new aircrafts of the same
kind.
It was around two and a
half years ago when Iran captured the US drone RQ170. Last week when it was
testing the air craft, the IRGC called it the American nightmare.
Now the commander of the IRGC
aearospace has said in an interview on the state TV that two new RQ170s are
being made under his command.
Iran seems to have found
the way to make the drones via reverse engineering.
Counding the Supreme Leader’s
commands as the guidelines by which his forces found the way through making out
how to rebuild the machine, Amir Ali Hajizadeh said that the Supreme Leader’s
words "are Divine command and have to be followed. Besides that, today we have
got through sanctions and the enemy cannot do anything to us in military terms.”
"I have said many times that the air craft has
brought with itself loads of achievements in the intelligence and technology
sections. Reverse engineering is one of the projects. Let me say it frankly,
what we did was a kind of a piss-off we gave them. That’s why we went after
building the machine. Of course there have been other aircrafts as well which
are quite something in their own right.”
