The lightweight drone, created by the IRGC's research and development unit, can carry a 7-kilogram (15.4-pound) bomb and drop the payload flying 500 meters (1,640 feet) above the ground. The device can also simultaneously carry and launch 10 small missiles aimed at different targets.
The two-engine unmanned aerial vehicle takes off and lands vertically, which makes it useful to various IRGC units and operable in any terrain, the report said.
The new drone meets the IRGC ground force's needs to target terrorist groups in the country's hard-to-reach northwestern and southeastern borders, Tasnim said.
