Iranian UAV “Shahed 129″ crashed in Pakistan’s Baluchistan province.

The Shahed 129 is an Iranian Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV) first publicly unveiled in September 2012. The aircraft is claimed to be capable of carrying out combat and reconnaissance missions with an endurance of 24 hours, making it the first Iranian MALE UAV .

On September 2013 Iran has launched the mass-production of the indigenously developed Shahed 129 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which was unveiled in September 2012, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced. The drone was displayed recently in an armed configuration, carrying four guided missiles (Sadid) loaded on two twin-launchers, carried underwing. Iranian sources stated the drone can carry up to eight ‘weapons’, designed to hit stationary and mobile targets alike

Sorry to burst your bubbles but there is no evidence it has landed in Pakistan.

The apparent downing of an Iranian unmanned system is providing a good look at Tehran's indigenous high-end drone.

On Aug. 13, social media began buzzing with pictures of what appears to be a crashed Shahed 129. Defense News cannot independently confirm whether these photos are legit, but it has not observed pushback from the knowledgeable aerospace communicate on Twitter that would indicate these are fakes.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard, which unveiled the system in 2012, has claimed the Shahed has a range of 1,700 kilometers and can stay aloft for 24 hours; it can also be armed with up to eight missiles. It is Iran's first medium altitude-long endurance (MALE) system, roughly analogous to the US Air Force fleet of MQ-1 Predators and MQ-9 Reapers.

Of note: These pictures are reportedly taken from inside Iranian territory, but very close to the Pakistan border. It is possible Iran is using these systems to keep an eye on its territory; it is also possible, though pure speculation, that they are using the Shahed to sneak a peak over the border into Pakistan.

It's not the first time the Shahed 129 has been spotted out in the wild. In 2014, video appeared on YouTube showing what looks like the Shahed flying over Damascus, Syria. Iran, of course, has been supporting the Assad government in the Syrian civil war.

Defense News Israeli bureau chief Barbara Opall-Rome wrote about Iran's unmanned system development programs back in 2013. At the time, she wrote:

As for the Shahed 129, details released by Tehran claim the unmanned aerial combat vehicle (UCAV) can carry up to eight weapons and remain airborne for 24 hours with an effective operational radius of 1,700 kilometers. Although the system was first unveiled a year ago, photos released last week show the UCAV in its armed configuration, with a pair of apparently laser-guided anti-tank missiles carried under each wing.

"Shahed 129 can easily track and identify … anyone targeting the Islamic Republic of Iran's sustainable security and can fire missiles at them upon orders from commanders," Iran's Press TV quoted Brig. Gen. Amir-Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the IRGC's Aerospace Division, as saying.

Tal Inbar, a UAV expert with Israel's Fisher Institute for Strategic Air and Space Studies, noted that Iran did not release weight, wingspan or payload capacity of the Shahed 129. Nevertheless, from photos and video footage, Inbar estimated a size and design similar to the Hermes 900 by Israel's Elbit Systems. He also noted what appeared to be a laser designator for advanced laser-guided anti-tank missiles.

"Based on the visuals, this could be a real UCAV system; not just a mock-up for exhibitions," Inbar said.

In an Oct. 1, 2013, interview, Inbar said the Shahed 129 would have less endurance and range than the Israeli Hermes 450 or 900 systems. But due to its similar design, Inbar said it could be problematic for Israel if transferred to Iran's Lebanese-based ally Hezbollah.

"Because its profile and radar signature resemble our own UAVs, the introduction of this system to our region has significance," he said.

False news ...

 

[CHI RULES]

they have lot of movement near Iran/Pak border as well as unrest in Sistan region , so may be using UAV for surveillance, no big deal till Iran shows no aggression against Pak. Now Iran foreign minister is constantly visiting Pak, so despite few people wishes one may safely say that our relations are quite satisfactory.

after intl embargoes are lifted we may go for some sort of collaboration with Iran in case of air defense.

Pakistan handed the US back it's tech when it crashed (remember the stealth helicopter) now's an interesting time to see how much of a puppet state Pakistan really is. I bet some NATO country will end up with it
