Iran does not intend to return US downed drone


The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) of Iran states that it will not return the unmanned aerial vehicle that, according to the military of the Islamic Republic, was shot down last week in the east of the country, the Associated Press news agency reported.

According to the deputy commander of the IRGC, General Hosseini Salami, whose words were broadcast on Iranian television on Sunday, the violation by the American drone Iranian airspace is a "hostile act" that will receive a "larger" response.

On Sunday, December 4, there were reports that the Iranian military shot down an American drone RQ-170 in the east of the country. The US authorities later admitted that they had lost the UAV, but said that there was no reason to believe that it was really shot down by the Iranians.

Iranian state television channels on Thursday for the first time showed on the air a fallen American drone, which was captured, according to local media, thanks to a cyber attack by Iranian intelligence services. The demonstrated apparatus has no visible damage.

Earlier, the American television station NBC reported that this drone was used in the interests of the CIA of the United States to collect information about the objects of Iran’s nuclear program. For still unknown reasons, the aircraft operators, who were in the United States, lost contact with him, after which the drone ran out of fuel, and it crashed.

Earlier this year, the Iranian military had already announced that they had destroyed two American UAVs in the Persian Gulf. However, the Pentagon has denied this data.

The United States and a number of Western countries suspect Iran of developing nuclear weapons under the guise of a nuclear power development program. Tehran rejects all accusations, stating that its nuclear program is aimed solely at meeting the country's electricity needs.

        It looks like there are not two drones flying. Iran is big. Objects of interest to the US and NATO are located throughout the territory. So there should be enough tachy birds for everyone. You just need to skillfully arrange the networks and wait for the next one to gape. There will be little left to do: Avtobaza.

      NATO is somehow languidly justified. Apparently, they did not expect this from the Iranian military. And about the lost connection and fuel, it’s hard to believe. They screwed up, but do not want to acknowledge .... But they will not dare to return.
      At the same time, as the media wrote, the United States was considering a plan for the penetration of special forces into Iran for a secret operation to return or destroy an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. But Washington refused to carry out the operation. In the US, it was felt that military risks are too great - This is not a cheap Hollywood action movie. bully

          Hmm ... say a cheap American action movie ... Actually, the influence of American culture (primarily cinema) on the rest of the world is simply unprecedented. You can (and should) laugh at American films and criticize them for being stupid and stupid. But at the same time, it is largely thanks to them that the phrase from the Ramstein song We are living in America, which implies the modern culture of most of the planet, is true.

            For most of the planet speak? This is how to look, more on what, area, population? Very controversial. No, of course the influence is enormous, but so categorically, I probably would not ... Yes, and in the past it, IMHO. This was true in the second half of the 20th century. And now it is more likely to cause rejection in people.
            (Although I admit I love, it's a sinful thing to revise some of the "classics." "Rimbaud. First Blood" for example, "Predator" first, "Alien"))) Bastards, something, but they know how to shoot a show).
            Our classics are for another, for the soul, for the Russian blues, for the mind, for bright feelings, for friends and vodka, but just in order not to get completely lost in bestiality and greed, derivatives of Western "culture for sale" ... Eh ..))

            do not confuse culture, subcultures, cinema, music and other works with the propaganda of their (Anglo-Saxon / Zionist) governments.
            although there was a version that the same Beatles were an experiment of the British, but even so I love British rock and post-punk and this does not mean that I am zombied and do not recognize the value of Slavic culture

        Hardly. Remember the recent statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry. and the recent teachings of China and Pakistan. The PRC stated that Pakistan is their friend forever, and any aggression is regarded as aggression against China.
        With such an ally, the United States can be sent far ...

      Actually for Iran itself, a drone is more of a propaganda value. Only the more scientifically and industrially advanced countries, for example, us and China, can study the technologies used (materials, electronics, etc.) and then apply them. I think now the idea is some kind of bargaining - to whom to give. On the US side, the best solution would be to find and destroy the drone with an air strike.

        There from the fundamentally important: the materials used, the electronic filling and software. It’s so easy to disassemble and lay out. And only one country in the world can copy anything, and that is not us.

        they would still need to collect and return the shells lol And what, the same property (there is a crisis in the world, it is necessary to save money) In the early 90s, China "put" an amerovsky intelligence officer in it. Yankesy raised - return, otherwise I will bite !!! Uh-huh - said China, and then almost defiantly disassembled the plane by screw, copied it and asked - will you return the whole one, or will the same go in bulk? They swung it and returned it at its best, until in the Pacific Ocean the US 6th Fleet tore its navel in a demonstration of the strength and determination of the States to return its flyer (the flyer was returned almost immediately, they asked around a bit - and returned wink )

      Figs there, Novosibirets, American culture is everywhere, from cinemas to fast food. They drove us into a dead end - on the one hand to look, smell, feel, etc. their culture is disgusting, but on the other, it is all so imposed and presented already chewed, that it is difficult to resist. His own culture is understandable after some threshold of a person’s age, when he starts to THINK, and before that, all the shooting and hammering are full of buzz!
