Is this for real? I assume it's a mock up, judging from its bulge.

This new motor has more air intact , probably it is a lot stronger than previous one and hopefully may be quieter than previous one ....

about motor , they should use gear instead of Flat Belt to transmit power to aircrew ... gears are safer and quitters than Belts ... ( I'm not pro in mechanic , so educate me if I'm wrong ) ...

Talking about this....

Just bad handwork....apart from this it looks decent, not a mock-up.

in mass producing process , they will make it better , its just a prototype and IRGC really love Shahed 129 series , so for sure they will mass produce it ...

Yes, maybe. Perhaps they were in a rush to prepare it for today's anniversary march. :(

All in all, this is great news. Btw, how can we use Satcoms? Is it possible to use Russian Glonass or Chinese Beidou?

And if it indeed includes a SAR, man that'd be awesome. :enjoy:

That's really not an issue...they made the casing a little bigger than it should be so while bolting, it caused some deflections..the next time, they will get the dimensions right...though they could have corrected it after seeing the deflections but seems like they had no time for it as like Serpentine said.

Probably Glonas. :agree:

You don't use any type of Belt to transmit power in any aircraft. Belts has a chance to snap....if it happens aircraft will go down. Belts are often used in ventilator fans of Air Handling Units, in buildings. If it snaps you can simply replace it but you don't have that option in aerial vehicles)
