Ahlulbayt News Agency: The Islamic Revolution Guards [IRG] furnished its ground troops with two homegrown drones used for assault and combat.
The IRG Ground Force has recently received the ‘Shahed-131’ suicide drone and ‘Ababil-5’ combat drone.
With a length of 2.6 meters, Shahed-131 weighs 135 kg and can detonate targets within a radius of 900 km.
The Iranian drone had played a leading role in an IRG drills that included exercises to attack the Zionist regime’s Dimona nuclear reactor with great accuracy.
Shahed-131 has also been employed in many operations against secessionist hostile groups in the Kurdistan Region in northern Iraq.
The other drone, Ababil-5, has been manufactured by the Defense Ministry.
Shorter wings allow the combat drone to carry a heavier payload of weapons. A retractable landing gear has expanded the angle of cameras in Ababil-5.
In October 2023, IRG Commander Major General Hossein Salami said Iran’s homegrown drones that use artificial intelligence can wreck any desired part of a hostile naval target thousands of miles away from the mainland.
