Who said Iran is a small throw away nation or belittled iran? take your insecurity else where if you cant have a proper intellectual discussion
We are simply stating that Iran would not do this without something in return. Iran has a production capacity for drones but depending on the type/complexity of drone provided it could take Iran 6 month-2 years to produce hundreds of drones thus replacing the ones provided to Russia. Again depending on the types of drones provided. These drones dont grow on trees or pop out of thin air. They are produced in complex factories using advanced matierials and technology which is time consuming.
Iran doesnt have that many competitive advantages over its enemies. One of the few that it has are its Drones and missiles. Imagine if a drone is shot over ukraine and captured? the US/Israelis would get there hands on it and easily be able to develop counter measures.
Many are captured in KSA and inside Israel already.
New types come out and older types get obsolete and well-known.
