Iran Claims 17 US MQ-1 Drones Destroyed! In the latest escalation over the Persian Gulf, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says its air defence systems have shot down another American military drone over Qeshm Island, taking its claimed tally of destroyed MQ-1 aircraft to 17.
According to the IRGC, the American drone was intercepted at around 2:30 PM local time on Saturday by an advanced air defence system operated by the IRGC Aerospace Force. Tehran has described the incident as another setback for American aerial surveillance operations in the region.
Iran has also claimed that its air defences have destroyed 56 US MQ-9 Reaper drones. If independently verified, these figures would represent significant losses for American unmanned aerial operations.
