Iran intercepts and shoots israeli drone

But what would be the motivation of Armenia to send it's drone into Iran?
The Armenian drone is very close to an Iranian UAV, Shahed 123, though there are some differences like their landing gear, but it seems to be a variant of it. Probably, Iran has built this drone for Armenia, or vice versa. In sum, at the best case, it means that Iran has flown this UAV by themselves and then shoot it to accuse Israel for it. BTW, there was going to be an unveiling conducted by defense ministry of Iran at the same day, but as I saw their unveiled stuff, they did not have anything mentionable to show to their president. So, it seems to be the reason behind this faking of intercepting Israeli drone story. :lol:
BTW, the range of this UAV is so low that I doubt if it even can do a roundtrip fly from one of Iran neighbors, like Armenia, to natanz which is located in central Iran. :lol:
It turned to be another joke after Hamaseh UAV, Qaher-313, ...

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps said Iran would expedite arming Palestinian resistance groups in the occupied West Bank in retaliation for the recent Israeli aggression into its airspace.
“We will speed up arming the West Bank and retain the right for any response,” Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh told reporters in Tehran on Monday, when asked about Iran’s reaction to the violation of the country’s airspace by an Israeli aircraft.

On Sunday, the IRGC announced that its aerospace forces had tracked and shot down a radar-evading stealth Israeli drone which was intending to penetrate the airspace over Natanz nuclear zone. The intruding aircraft was intercepted by a surface-to-air missile.

The issue of arming Palestine attracted a great deal of attention after Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei urged the necessity for armed confrontation with Israel, which has launched a military offensive against Gaza since July 8.

Back on July 23, Ayatollah Khamenei described the armed resistance as the only way to confront the “destructive regime” of Israel, noting, “Based on these realities, we believe that the West Bank should also be armed like Gaza and those who are interested in Palestine’s destiny should act in this regard in order to relieve Palestinians’ distress.”

Later on July 29, in a sermon on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr, Imam Khamenei reiterated the necessity for supporting Palestinian resistance groups in their fight with the Israeli regime, saying that the US is seeking to disarm Palestinians to help Israel suppress them easily.

“Unlike the view and effort of supporters of 'the child-murderer Zionist regime', the whole world and the Islamic world in particular, have an obligation to arm the Palestinian nation as much as possible,” the Leader said at the time.

Ayatollah Khamenei underlined that the issue of Gaza is the crux of the matter in the Islamic world and even the world of humanity today.

It is the humanity’s duty to react to Israel’s ruthless aggression against people of the Gaza Strip, the Leader insisted.

There are 4 UAVs from Hermes family:

Hermes 900
Hermes 450
Hermes 180
Hermes 90

Hermes 900 and 90 are out of question totally different hull shape. Hermes 450 is also too big and has a composite propeller (while that thing has wooden).

So only possible Israeli candidate is Hermes 180. Another candidature is unknown UAV crashed in Armenia. Now lets take a closer look of these 2 possible candidatures:

Hermes 180:
Hermes-180.jpg


Downed Natanz thingie:

Thing crashed in Armenia:

The Natanz thingie is obviously much closer to Armenian thing than to Hermes 180. Both have similar color scheme (Hermes has all silver tip, while Armenian and Natans have half tip), both have orange square on nose and both lack top access panel.

Conclusion: the thing downed in Natanz is same to mysterious UAV which crashed in Armenia.

But what could be an Armenian UAV? The only UAV which has such a scheme (reversed V wing and V tail) is an Iranian Shahed 123:

So most probably that Armenian thing is actually some derivative of Shahed 123.

P.S. There is a very minor probability that its derivative of Hermes 180 which came from Azerbaijan. But its unclear how such a small UAV without Satcom could fly 650 km into Iranian territory, flying near by Tehran and other super dense populated strategic areas.
Second photo has evidence enough with the hole in the front to conclude it was an Usraeli Hermes, the two other photos are irrelevant.
 
.
even if it was Israeli drone , which looks similar to Hermes 450 , how is it even possible for such UAV to get 400km inside Iranian territory when its range is 300km
 
.
What radar evading technology is to stealth?
They said it had radar evading technology and that is a kind of stealth. Be it composite materials, wooden propellants, paint, heat reducing materials or ECM suites.

If u say that its Hermes 180 which could come only from Azerbaijan, then all Iranian air defence and air force commanders should be publicly executed. Since that wooden propeller junk managed to fly 650 km inside Iranian territory passing by Tehran.

Or Iraq where the US is operating right now some air-strikes. A wooden propeller is well known for ages of its stealthiness.
That was 400 km, you just stretch it like everything else. and by the way it was monitored throughout its flight.
Than, maybe your commanders should be executed for failing their mission, and loosing some "hard earned" US technology.
By the way who told you "passing by Tehran"? any source or is it out of your huge lies bag?

Serious UAVs like Hermes 450 and higher use composite propellers.

The distance from Azeri border to Natanz is 650 km. And since that junk has a speed of 100 km/h that means it flew for 6.5 hours over Iranian territory. :lol:

and by the way it was monitored throughout its flight.
Proof?

Again ur butthurt expertise. You cant even differ between the Merkava and M60.

Look at the map. If it came from Azebaijan flying towards Natanz it had to pass by Tehran.

Compared to what ???

Do you think a wooden propeller would differ from a composite propeller in terms of RCS reduction... ?

Only way to prevent it to take the propeller inside the hulll, meaning a turbo-fan...
 
.
I showed you picture of Mirkava destroyed in Lebanon, at least a hundred of them, You prefer of course to see them as M-60s as an Aspirin for your butt hurt.
look yourself, you say If it came from Azerbaijan, which I do not believe.
Proof it was monitored? go ask the Iranians to give you their secrets.
You talked about wooden propellers, and I gave you an an answer.
We all know that your expertise is lying about anything and everything throughout time, for thousands of years, and that you can not help it, since it is part of your life, education and upbringing.

That is not my pic so go play somewhere else.
To the contrary mam! My knowledge about your apartheid like regime is well documented and very sound, The other thing is that I have no hatred in my heart, I am as rational as you can ever imagine. And when I expose your lies and propaganda attempts, you get mad.
You even attempt to bring in a photo I have never posted to justify your claims of 0 knowledge about what you call your country, that proves you childish mind and game you are trying to play .

Indeed does seem to be hermes variant. Israeli's will try to do everything to ruin 'rapprochement' if you want to call it that between US/Iran. Israel doesn't want a Middle East which takes a high place in the international world. It wants our nations in civil strife or almost complete obedience to the West.

And the regional state suits them well. Iran wouldn't be able to respond with much. This is why they must anticipate an Israeli attack at anytime and do everything to thwart/expose Israeli plans.
