I think the UCAV and loitering munitions doctrine suits Iran because it can easily make a lot of them and it can have a big number of users for them.In terms of UAVs, there are two main reasons why Iran excels. 1) It was actually one of he first/the first nation to use UCAVS all the way back on the 80s in the Iran-Iraq war. It was a relatively crude system, but it showed you even from back then Iran had unmanned systems in mind. 2) Access to Americans UAVs like RQ-170 helped push Iran's technology in this sector by many years. Not sure which Israeli UAVs you're thinking of? As for China, Iran has never used any UAVs from China.
