MoD scientists get hands on top secret Iran drone

A large part of the Arash-2 was recovered in the Negev desert last Sunday. The discovery was both unusual and unexpected because its powerful warhead means it usually completely disintegrates on impact.

That it survived relatively intact means either the drone was launched without a warhead, or the warhead malfunctioned – which would be significant.

According to Israeli officials, Iran launched 170 drones, more than 30 cruise missiles and more than 120 ballistic missiles on April 13.

More than 99 per cent were intercepted, either by Israeli forces, or with help from the US, UK, Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
