Examination of the wreckage of Iran’s offensive drones in Iraq indicate some of their essential parts are manufactured in the United States, media close to Kurdish-Iranian opposition group based in Iraq reported.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) forces have in the past week launched a series of attacks on the Iranian Kurdish opposition parties' operation centers in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
On Sunday, the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI) announced that their Peshmerga fighters had shot down four Iranian drones amidst IRGC’s attacks on their positions.
Pictures of the wreckage released by media close to the PDKI show some integral parts of these drones marked with “Made in USA”.
According to their reports, the company that manufactures these components is called “Tillotson” and is based in Ohio, USA, with several branches in Europe.
Reportedly, the IRGC gets these parts from Hungary, Germany, and China, through intermediaries and brokers, using registered companies appearing to be outwardly active in the industrial field.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has claimed in the past that it has reached self-sufficiency in the construction of these drones.
