— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: Iranian air defenses shot down an unidentified surveillance drone in the Strait of Hormuz last night – Fars

🇮🇷🇺🇸| BREAKING: According to Iranian think tank Meshkat, the wreckage belongs to a MQ-9A Extended Range USAF drone.

This means that Iran shot down a hostile MQ-9 Reaper drone during a joint UAE-US operation near the Strait of Hormoz, this week.

Meshkat analysed and came to the conclusion that the wreckage belongs to a MQ-9A Extended Range, which is a newer US-operated version with longer endurance.

This would be 25th visual proof of a downed MQ-9 in Iran.
