IRGC Navy Commodore Alireza Tangsiri stated on Saturday that the newly unveiled and domestically manufactured Martyr Soleimani warship allows the IRGC naval forces to be present in international seas.
The Drive explained that the weapons mounted beneath Kaman-22 s wings are four Sadid guided bombs and two Balaban glide bombs. There also looks to be an electro-optical sensor turret on the UAV.
It has to be said that the Kaman-22 doesn t hugely resemble its Kaman-12 predecessor, and has a closer resemblance to the U.S. Predator MQ-1 and Reaper MQ-9; but at this stage, we ll have to hold tight until more information is officially shared.
Additionally, in 2016, The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force released the photos of an American MQ-1C Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) captured by the IRGC forces,
