Foreign Customers Interested in Iranian Drones: Commander
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Many foreign countries are eager to purchase Iran’s unmanned aerial vehicles, Air Force Commander Brigadier General Hamid Vahedi said.
During a visit to an airbase in Iran’s southern port city of Bushehr, the Air Force commander highlighted Iran’s great progress in military industries after the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979.
Describing Iran as a front-runner in the drone industry, the commander said the Iranian Air Force has manufactured a broad spectrum of drones with various operational ranges.
Many foreign countries are interested in buying Iranian drones, he stated.
In 2023, the chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces said the country has developed such advanced defense products that the big military powers of the world are willing to acquire its achievements.
Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri said the world has acknowledged that Iran has developed its military capabilities not through reverse engineering or reproduction of foreign products, noting that even the world’s major military powers have become interested in Iran’s defense capabilities and are seeking to obtain its achievements.
