I can only expect from (some) Iranians to claim that Iran is among top five drone technology owner
without any proof. You claim you are among the top five but you only show some
blurry pictures of your so-called MALE class UAV or you show
target drones which most of the countries possess. Why do not you inform us
what your UAV characteristics are, what their performances are, what their mission capabilities are, what their systems are etc.? What I have seen some blurry pictures and some target drones images. You only got these and you claim you are among the top drone technology owners? How pathetic is this???
Show me something like these and then claim you among five
