Ukrainian military intelligence has uncovered data that may indicate the delivery of attack drones from Iran to Russia during a full-scale war, and not before, as Tehran claims. The components of one of the downed Mohajer-6 UAVs were manufactured in February, and it took time to deliver it, Vasyl, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (GUR) told in a comment to the Suspilne, the website of the Main Directorate informs.
“The screw of the Mohajer-6 drone was manufactured only in February this year. Just manufactured. And it also took time to deliver it to the Russian Federation. That is, they were delivered this year,” the intelligence representative noted.
The Iranian-made Mohajer is assembled from parts produced in different countries. Most of the components are from the USA. The UAV also has an Austrian engine and a Japanese camera.
According to the intelligence officer, no Russian elements were found in the drone. One element has an inscription in Farsi. A visible-range camera was made in Japan. A laser rangefinder was made in China. An aerial bomb was produced in Iran.
Ukrainian specialists are currently investigating how foreign parts ended up in a drone assembled by a terrorist sponsor country. The GUR employees have already passed the serial numbers and data on the components' manufacturers to the partner countries.
The journalists of the Schemes also reported the foreign origin of the components of the drones.
