If Iran is approaching this the same way they have approached "replicating" U.S. aircraft carriers then I don't think the West would have much to worry about with this. So I suppose that's the big question here, what exactly is this replicated drone—an accurate copy of at least the airframe, or a propaganda piece designed to appeal to the local populace?
- jacquesm 12y agoReplicating an aircraft carrier versus replicating a drone is a challenge of a totally different level, never mind the practical applications. Iran is much more likely to encounter a US built drone on its territory than it is to encounter an aircraft carrier within the 12 mile zone. Most likely it is more than you think it is and less than they would want, and its only practical uses right now are analysis of soft spots and propaganda (and that's working well by the looks of it).
