Source: Defapress.ir The Islamic Republic of Iran Army Ground Forces (IRIAGF) has deployed three Mohajer-6 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), it was announced on 17 July. Iranian media cited Brigadier General Shahram Hassannejad, the commander of the IRIAGF's UAV unit, as saying that the aircraft would be used to identify and destroy threats to the country's borders. The military released photographs showing at least one Mohajer-6 deployed to an unidentified airfield that was said to be in northeast Iran. The presence in the photographs of an uncompleted building with a blue frame indicated they were taken at the airstrip north of Gonabad in Razavi Khorasan province, 170 km from the Afghanistan border. Unveiled in April 2016, the Mohajer-6 is the first of the Mohajer series to have wheeled undercarriage. A ceremony was held in February 2018 to announce that it had entered serial production for the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).
