After decades of steady development, Iranian drones are now battle-tested, relatively sophisticated, affordable, and conducive for mass production. Some even claim that Iran is emerging as a drone superpower and its drones are becoming a"game changer" in conflict zones.Today, Iranian drones wreak havoc in the Middle East. Iran and its terror proxies use drones in Iraq, Syria, Israel, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE to advance Iran’s expansionist foreign policy objectives.
In addition, Iran’s drones and missiles pose a direct threat to U.S. air supremacy in the Arabian Gulf and the Middle East region. In an April 2021 testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, U.S. Central Command chief Gen. Kenneth McKenzie Jr. noted that the small and medium armed drones being proliferated by Iran and its proxies “present a new and complex threat to our forces and those of our partners and allies.
China has, in recent years, started flooding the Middle East with UAVs and, ironically enough, Beijing has exploited tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran to supply both countries with its UAVs. China even struck a deal with Saudi Arabia in March of last year to build a drone factory in the Arab state.
