TEHRAN -- Iran said Saturday it has started mass producing and using a stealth drone with a range of 700 kilometers (420 miles) that it claims is undetectable to radars.
"We have built a drone with a more than 700-kilometer range, which can collect information and shoot films," the head of the elite Revolutionary Guards, General Yahya Rahim Safavi, told Iran's Arabic-language satellite news channel Al Alam.
"The material and the shape of this drone make it undetectable for radars, so it cannot be targeted," he added. "The drone has passed its experimental phase and it is being mass produced, and we are currently using it in our operations," Rahim Safavi, said without giving more details.
His announcement comes a few days after troops under his command successfully tested a land-to-sea missile with a range of about 350 kilometers, and a new Russian-made air defense missile system.
