It's time for the US to sanctions American companies ...

 

[mohsen]

This is the correct title: there is no Iranian component in the alleged Iranian drones.

It's time for the US to sanctions American companies ...

Why just American companies, they should also sanction the banking system which facilitates their transactions, also any entity (civilian or military) who works with them.

P.S
There were Ukrainian component as well, so the same applies to them.

 

[Shapur Zol Aktaf]

Maybe Iran is buying them ready-to-fly from amazon.. sanction amazon.

Now I understand why they called these drones garbage, it's full of American parts.

Also Adobe must be added to the list as far as all Iranian drones are photoshop ...

Foreign minister of Iran:
In the framework of defense cooperation with Russia, 11 months before the start of the war in Ukraine, one of the defense items and defense cooperation between the two countries was the sale of a very limited number of Iranian drones to Russia. So far, we have not received any evidence from the Ukrainian side about the use of Iranian drones in Ukraine.

Recently, the political and military team of Iran and Ukraine had a discussion in a third country, and we are continuing our investigations in this field. In the last phone conversation with me before this meeting, the Foreign Minister of Ukraine said that a drone was captured intact by the Ukrainian military forces and this drone is Russian, but it is similar to the Iranian Shahid 136 drone, and I told him that it is a drone similar to an Iranian drone. and this drone is Russian, this is proof that Iran is sticking to its positions.

Of course, we told the Russians more than twice, and the Russians clearly said that only Russian-made weapons were used in the Ukraine war. We are unhappy with the continuation of the war against Ukraine and the conflict between the two countries, and we do not consider war as a solution, and we continue our efforts to end the war and to return peace and tranquility to Ukraine and the region.

well about those Gran-2 i don't knew anything so i don't talk about their origin , but the Mohajer-6 that fall in black sea and Ukraine captured had a production date of February 2022 . so logic say it can at most produced 3 week before the start of the war . but let not kidd ourselve how is the chance that as soon as it was produced it was sent to russia , specially it seem the bomb on it was produced in may 2022

1. Sale date isn't the same as delivery date.

2.Even western countries are changing their stance that Russia has the production line, the only difference is that they say it's a new event, while Abdullahian says it's not new.

3.It's always good to mock our enemies in their own game, for years they gave weapons (even Chemical weapons) to our enemies without taking the responsibility, so I do hope our sale is after the start of the war.

And yet these flying mowers humiliate multi billion dollar western air defenses.

By the way, Iranians kill the cockroach by their shoes, so whose pride is in jeopardy!? lol

Yes surprised you didn't paste the stock image of the ARAMCO refinery with holes made by Iranian drones. If you know anything about the Patriot or equivalent Russian or Chinese systems you'd know it's not effective against low flying drones or cruise missiles. Its intended for high / medium altitude targets. For low flying drones you need SHORADS or you need defensive air patrols vectored by AWACS. Saudi had neither protecting its air space over the refinery.

So yeah you're welcome to delude yourself at the success of a sucker punch.
And now that the Saudi's have learnt from their mistake they've effectively neutralized your primitive drones.

They used drones as well as ballistic and cruise missiles, according to SPA. Saudi forces said they intercepted a missile and shot down nine drones.

Houthis Target Aramco Sites in Saudi Arabia Using Drones

Yemen’s Houthi rebels attacked at least six sites across Saudi Arabia late Saturday and early on Sunday, including some run by state oil giant Saudi Aramco.

This strike only happened last year by the way.Evidently after this the saudis started sticking NETS in front of the launchers to try to give them some extra protection.
Maybe the ukies could give that a try,eh?

There is a ceasefire right now. but it seems you have stuck in the past, those center holes were the first attack, but since then, Houthis have attacked pretty much everywhere in Saudi Arabia, specially in the red sea where NATO ships are also present. In their latest attacks, that beautiful hole was at the bottom of the tank which led to the depletion and burn of the entire oil in the tank. and yet it was just a limited show of force, otherwise Houthis could have burnt the entire Saudis oil reserves (which could have led to an environment disaster).

Saudis did learn their lesson and that's why they accepted Houthis' terms for ceasefire.

Disappointed from west, now they are looking for Russian and Chinese air defenses, particularly they have bought the Chinese silent hunter laser cannon to fight these drones and we have to see how successful they will be.

if this is true, then its strong proof that US sanctions are quite incompetent. UKraine and NATO will keep focusing on what doesnt matter, which is why the war wont go well in the long run for them.

useless the uav dive is about 80 degree , they probably need to put the net on top of the system and even if ababil is used that uav don't hit the target it explode above it and the shrapnel do the job
