Probablemente un avión del tipo "Preadator", ese con el que a veces atacan a los mojados en la frontera de Arizona...
Muy bien por las defensas Iranies... parece que los Rusos les han ayudado... ojalá los proveean de sistemas antiaereos S-300 y Tunguska.
.
Por otro lado, la producción automóvilistica y acerera de Iran, no cesa de incrementarse a pasos acelerados...

COUNTRY BRIEFING
The Iranian Customs Administration said in mid-January that the country's car manufacturing industry had exported vehicles worth a total of US$94.5m during the nine-month period beginning March 21st 2005. According to a report from the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), customs officials added that the total was some 67% higher than that recorded for the same nine-month period starting in March 2004. Spare parts worth some US$44.7m were also exported over the same period. Syria was the largest market for Iranian vehicles, taking 62% of exported cars by value. Other major markets included Saudi Arabia, Russia, Egypt and the Ukraine. Major markets for spare parts included the UAE, Saudi Arabia, France, Iran and Syria.
The bulk of these cars are manufactured for local use-import controls mean that local companies dominate the Iranian vehicle market, and for 2005, the total number of imported vehicles amounted to just 10,000. In recent years, however, Iranian manufacturers have started to look beyond their own borders at possible export markets. The tie-ups that local manufacturers have with international car companies will probably help make the products more attractive to export markets. However, growth has still been slower than the government would have wanted-in 2004, government officials were suggesting that automotive exports would reach US$350m in 2005.
