Iran Displays Captured U.S. and Israeli Drones as Reverse Engineering Begins

Iran has showcased what it describes as captured American and Israeli drones inside one of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force’s underground facilities.

The displayed aircraft are being presented as trophies from recent confrontations with U.S. and Israeli forces.

Iranian officials and state-linked reports say engineers have begun studying the captured systems through reverse engineering, focusing particularly on advanced electro-optical sensors, surveillance equipment and other onboard components.

The move highlights Tehran’s efforts to extract technological and intelligence value from captured foreign military hardware while demonstrating what it portrays as the resilience and capabilities of Iran’s drone and aerospace programs.
