Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards said on Wednesday they had developed a “suicide drone” capable of delivering explosives to blow up targets at sea and on land.
The new drone is primarily for maritime surveillance and “has not been designed to be armed with missiles,” the Tasnim news agency, which is close to the Guards, reported.

Aren't you glad that the billions of dollars Obama sent to Iran are being spent on weapons like this?
Suicide drones in that Iran will be a glowing sandlot but then if Hillary be in then it’s more line in the sand stuff aka 0bama. She’ll be all “You do that again and I’ll draw another line just like my predecessor did”
Revive the rule, “IF IT FLYS, IT DIES.”
Yeah, he wouldn’t authorize a mission to destroy the US drone that “crashed” inside of Iran a few years back. Obviously the fears of reverse engineering are coming true...
When I read the headline I flashed a mental image of a biplane with an old time radio chasis complete with vacuum tubes strapped into the pilot’s seat. LOL.
LOL! My first post was before I looked. Now I looked! LOLLOLLOL.
No supersonic, no stealth, no practicality?
I don't think the drone “crashed”. I think Obama purposefully gave the Iranians access to U.S. drone technology so that they could engineer and manufacture their own drones.

Iranians arrest 14 squirrels for spying

If they use squirrels for spies, I wonder what they use to pilot the drones ..?
A low cost cruise missile?
Is it in every newspaper’s style sheet to insert the word ‘elite’ between the words ‘Iran’ and ‘Revolutionary Guard’. Because when I see these alleged soldiers on TV they look anything but.
A Slow missile? But call it something else and Obama will excuse it and pay them Billions of Taxpayer $ in unmarked bills?
I miss the Bananas... come on Banana Republics have Bananas right? I feel cheated.
When I went to Iran these supposed ‘elite’ folks were targets for our beer bottles off the roof tops (guess ya had to be there) I have pictures of them waving at me in their Guard Towers that have great big signs “No Photos” (those little 110 cameras were awesome)
They were supposed to be our guides in town and instructed to Shepard us for our visit, I don’t know of anyone on our Ship that couldn’t ditch them within the first hour... they were a poor excuse for company let alone a Ambassadors for their own Country.
Rides back to the Compound were different (the Iranian Army drove us out, we ditched them asap) the little Datsun trucks that doubled as Cabs would only go so close to the Port... it was usually a mile or so hike to get back to the ship .. unless one of the Iranian Army folks drove by and you could hop in.
All in all Iran was not the kind of Port Call that you would look forward to repeating (the Ruins / History were cool but Very Difficult to access)
In Newspaper speak ‘elite’ must be non-committed ignorant assholes (and those were the ones my 19 year old self tolerated... the rest I ignored or photographed without their knowledge)
I was stuck there for a week, I entertained myself
They will probably be reverse engineered devices like the UAV, which Obama landed in their back yard a few years back.
