The Defense Intelligence Agency has updated its report that provides a visual comparison of unmanned aerial vehicles used by Russian forces in Ukraine and Iranian UAVs used to target U.S. and partner interests in the Middle East.
DIA said Friday the updated report provides additional findings and declassified images to prove Russia is using Iran’s drones in Ukraine despite Tehran’s claims that the UAVs were not Iranian.
The unclassified report is based on DIA’s display of components of the Iranian-made Shahed-131 UAVs recovered in Ukraine and Iraq, as well as Shahed-101, a smaller drone recovered in Iraq.
The original document was released in February and included images and descriptions of the Mohajer 6 multirole UAV and the Shahed-136 and Shahed-131 one-way attack UAVs.
