MOSCOW, May 10 (RIA Novosti) - Iran has unveiled a radar-evading unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capable of carrying out both surveillance and attack missions, the Press TV channel reported on Thursday.
“This drone has been built by defense industry experts and is simultaneously capable of surveillance, reconnaissance and missile and rocket attacks,” said Iranian Defense Minister Brig. Gen. Ahmad Vahidi, who attended a ceremony to unveil the aircraft.
“This aircraft with its stealth quality can avoid detection by the enemy,” he said.
Press TV gave no exact technical parameters of the aircraft, but said the two distinguishing features of the new UAV, dubbed Hamaseh, are “high altitude and long flight range.”
