Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIran’s military has destroyed 111 enemy drones since the start of the Middle East war, the Revolutionary Guard’s Sepah News portal reports.
It claims the Guards had destroyed an MQ-9 over Fars province and another aircraft in Tabriz, meaning “the total number of drones destroyed so far is 111 of various types.”
It does not provide a breakdown of how many were cheap, one-way explosive drones versus more sophisticated multi-use aircraft such as the MQ-9.
