U.S. Media Claims Russia Handed Over Western Weapons Captured in Ukraine to Iran for Study

Western, including American-made weapons captured during the hostilities in Ukraine, were allegedly transferred by Russia to Iran for study. This is reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing sources in the US military.

According to the publication, in response, Tehran allegedly agreed to begin deliveries of ballistic missiles to Russia. Recall that neither Russia nor Iran has ever officially confirmed that the Islamic Republic is transferring unmanned aerial vehicles or, moreover, ballistic missiles to the RF Armed Forces during a special military operation.

Interestingly, US administration officials also assure that so far there is no evidence of Iran transferring ballistic missiles to the Russian Federation. But Iran and Russia really stepped up cooperation, including in the military-technical direction, after the start of a special military operation in Ukraine.

On the other hand, if indeed Western weapon and is transferred to Iran for subsequent study of its capabilities and technical component, then the West itself is solely to blame for this. There would be no massive deliveries of Western military equipment and weapons to Ukraine, and there would be no possibility to transfer them to Iran.

If Western countries appear in Ukraine in the near future Tanks, then representatives of the military circles of the United States and the EU countries should understand that such a fate could befall the Abrams and Leopard cars. But for the American leadership, apparently, even such risks are already insignificant compared to the maniacal desire to win in Ukraine.

US media also reported that Russia and Iran are planning to build a joint plant to produce unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

"weapons of Western, including American production, were allegedly transferred by Russia to Iran for study."
some kind of nonsense - why not?

[ivan1979nkl]

and what not?

this weapon is sacred and inviolable, if found, do not touch it with your hands and immediately return it to the owner

[your1970]

In the Second World War, the USSR handed over to England a German torpedo with a new type of fuse.
And everyone handed over the T-4 to Israel after the war ..
Whose trophy is the one that rules them ..

Publication date!!! If the news is fresh, then this can be seen as pressure on Israel. And if not? There is no correct link. "Military Review" should raise its level, and not plinth it.

Even if this is true, then this is the right of Russia to dispose of the trophies captured from the enemy at its own discretion. So, "walk Vasya."

[marchcat]

I have never heard a more absurd statement. What difference does it make to you, it wasn’t figs to supply ... a complete scribe!

[Roma 1977]

Give something God. That is inshallah. And Iran urgently needs C-400s. Like Sev. Korea. And for complete pleasure - Texas patriots need anti-tank systems. If perishing on-adult conversations went.

[bukhach]

And why so, one asks, the cordial ones were alarmed, it is a common thing for countries cooperating in the military sphere to share the secrets of their common enemies, nothing new.

[Mountain shooter]

What couldn't be? Or will they still tell us what to do with our trophies? Flattened...

[oleg-nekrasov-19]

Russia can transfer the captured weapons of NATO countries to whom it sees fit.

[Roma 1977]

Z.s. The sincere surprise of the American media causes my sincere surprise ...

[topol717]

I have nothing against Iran, but they would also write that we buy missiles from North Korea, or from Afghanistan.
And what the hell is your business, what does Russia do with trophies?
We can also lay out the entire construction in free access. ))))

[YanniKounnar]

Curieux ces medias ne se rendent pas compte qu'ils se contredisent, depuis des mois ils affirment qu'ils n'y a pas eu d'armes occidentales capturées!? :-)

It is curious that these media do not understand that they are contradicting each other, for several months they have been claiming that no Western weapons were seized!? :-)

[Carat]

Russia has the right to transfer trophy weapons to whomever it wants and as much as it wants.

[single-n]

And what their dog business what we and to whom passes? Let them rejoice that they are not Texas freedom fighters. Or restorers of the historical justice of the results of the US-Mexican wars.

[kotev19]

Stop littering the site! What nonsense! As if the Americans had not left so much of this "modern property" in Afghanistan, which borders on Iran!

[Zaurbek]

And they wrote: is it bad or good? Can't transfer or can? Should we be ashamed or not? Or should Iran be ashamed?

[Bingo]

Debt good turn deserves another. They gave us a downed strategic drone for study, we gave them Alaverdi ... This is called "partnership". USA and Germany do not understand.

Even if it's true, so what?
Neh ren was to supply, and now suck your paw!

Quote: K-50

Neh ren was to supply, and now suck your paw!

there is already experience, 2008 ...
"We have certainly conveyed to (the Russian side) our position that these Humvees are US property and should be returned," Pentagon spokesman Brian Whitman said Thursday.

Everyone is outraged that the West is allegedly dissatisfied with the fact of the transfer. Like, our trophies, we do what we want. At least we’ll pickle it in a tub, at least we’ll give it to the Persians.

But no one thought about the fact that Iran already knows the old Western weapons. And there is no point in learning something new. Well, except perhaps to improve their knowledge about cuts and kickbacks. What is now more or less effectively fighting in U is the brainchild of the Cold War. And the equipment that was created after the collapse of the Union, an example, drank the budget.

[Huzhzhu]

Well ... and .... Even if so, then what?

[faterdom]

Usually younger partners are transferred for study to a senior one, as Japan transferred the MiG-25 to the USA.
We are able to study everything ourselves, and if necessary, transfer to Iran in the form of files what is interesting to it.
So, another fake. In addition, there is no assessment is it good or bad? Terrible aggressive Russia hands over democratic weapons to totalitarian Iran?
Or does the militant fanatical-religious Iran receive weapons designed only to protect Freedom, Equality and Fraternity from autocratic terrorist Russia?
Is this a copyright infringement of Lockheed Martin and BAE systems?

[Elephant]

Yes, in Iran, perhaps faster than foreign models of weapons will be studied in our country

[grandfather_Kostya]

A brief retelling of the WSJ article with a translation from American into Russian: "If I were in the place of the Russians, I would have done so", "if I had been in the place of the Iranians, I would have done it."

[Carlos Hall]

I suggested this here a few months ago, I think it's a great idea and they should also be sent to China, North Korea and other countries hostile to the United States.

[alexey_444]

The usual operation to denigrate the enemy, it just doesn’t work with halva (it won’t become sweeter in the mouth), but in politics, Russia Iran DPRK is constantly trying and all the bogey is hung up, prove the opposite later.

[Winter]

I don't see a problem. To whom we want, we pass it on. If you want to keep something a secret, don't give it to the bent paws of the warriors of the Kingdom of Wu secret.

[ASM]

It means that enough is captured, which pleases. And to whom to pass it on is our decision and every n-sama needs to shut up.

[Eug]

The strengthening of the military-technical cooperation between Russia and Iran was not caused by the start of the NWO, but by the sanctions against Russia caused by the start of the NWO, and by the much longer Western sanctions against Iran. In my opinion, there is a fundamental difference between these definitions. Well, there is nothing surprising in strengthening the military-technical cooperation - if the parties have products and technologies of mutual interest and there is no longer a fear of sanctions ....

[yho]

Great! Maybe the Iranians will disassemble and copy, and we will also have, over time, our own Javelings.

[flyer]

The news is actually very sad. This is what it was necessary to bring the Russian military-industrial complex to our "effective" managers, that weapons are being transferred to Iranian scientists ....
