Germany tries Iranians charged with smuggling drone engines as jet ski parts

(Reuters) - Two Iranian men charged with smuggling dozens of German-made engines capable of powering drones into Iran by declaring them as jet ski engines went on trial at a Frankfurt court on Monday.

The men, identified only as Iman J.L., who also holds German nationality, and Davood A., are accused of violating Germany's Foreign Trade Act by disguising the true nature of the goods, in an apparent effort to get around trade sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear work.

Iman J.L. is accused of obtaining 61 engines between 2008 and 2009 delivering them to Iran through his own import-export company. To get through customs, he allegedly declared them as jet ski engines.

Davood A. is accused of assisting in the transport and selling some of the motors in Iran.

Iman J.L. declined to make a statement to the court, while Davood A. did not show up for the trial. His case will now be tried separately, the court said.

The engines are suitable for use in Iran's Ababil 3 drones, according to a court statement.

Iran is under U.S., EU and U.N. Security Council sanctions over its nuclear work that many countries fear is aimed at developing weapons capability, something Tehran denies.

Negotiations between Iran and six world powers aimed at resolving the nuclear dispute resume in Vienna this week.

And here we saw them fly in iranian skies. Stop accusing poor iranians :D
We have to wait for the trial and analysis of whether or not it was fair before we as members accuse or blame. Maybe other members have more info about this case.

I thought akhoonds were capable of making their own engines, what happened?
 
Which UAV engine are we talking about any news on the name of the UAV.
 
So Iran smuggles a simple piston engine to power their UAVs. But can produce a a turbofan engine to power their RQ-170 copy...?

Seems like they are buying stuff similar to our TEI TP-1X engine.
