The Ababil 2 UAV production plant was inaugurated in the Tajik capital of Dushanbe on Tuesday.
In order to strengthen and develop joint defense and military cooperation between the two countries, the plant was inaugurated in the presence of a group of Iranian and Tajik officials.
Addressing the ceremony, General Baqeri said that the Islamic Republic of Iran, with the efforts of its committed specialists and scientists and by using its internal capacities, has been able to make a significant growth in all military and defense dimensions, specially production of drones.
"Today we are in a position that we can export military equipment to allied and friendly countries in addition to meeting domestic needs in order to increase security and lasting peace," he said.
General Baqeri called opening of the Ababil 2 plant in Tajikistan a turning point in military cooperation between the two countries, and said, "God willing, in the future we will see more cooperation and interaction than all military defense levels between Iran and Tajikistan."
Its a smart choice by tajikistan.Its a simple,reliable,easy to manufacture entry level system,able to be used for both recon and attack operations as well as in training for ad crews,and with a long combat proven record.
