Iran: This is How We Trapped US Spy Drone
Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Forces Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh explained Thursday how Iranian forces downed the United States' highly advanced radar-evading spy drone last week.
"Recently, our collected intelligence and precise electronic monitoring revealed that this aircraft intended to infiltrate our country's airspace for spying missions," the General said clarifying that "after it entered the Eastern parts of the country, this aircraft fell into the trap of our armed forces and was downed in Iran with minimum damage."
"The wing-to-wing width of the RQ-170 Sentinel drone is around 26 meters with a length of 4.5 meters and height of 1.84 meters," he added.
Informing that "the drone is equipped with highly advanced surveillance, data gathering, electronic communication and radar systems," the IRGC commander pointed out that "as far as its platform and coating are concerned, this kind of plane has been designed to evade radar systems and from the view point of technology it is amongst the most recent types of advanced aircraft used by the US.
"The technology used in this aircraft had already been used in B2 and F35 planes," Hajizadeh said adding that "this aircraft is controlled and guided through satellite link and land stations in Afghanistan and the United States."
"Military experts are well aware how precious the technological information of this drone is," he reiterated.
US officials admitted earlier this week that "the unmanned surveillance plane lost by the United States in Iran was a stealth aircraft being used for secret missions by the CIA."
The aircraft is among the highly sensitive surveillance platform in the CIA's fleet that was shaped and designed to evade enemy defenses.
