Iran develops drones capable of targeting and destroying naval vessels and submarines
The usual Iranian vapourware or something real?
[Shafaq News] On Tuesday, the Islamic Theocratic Republic of Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
Navy (NEDAJA) announced that it developed drones capable of targeting and destroying floating naval vessels and submarines.

Commodore Shahram Irani, Commander of the Iranian Navy, told Tasnim news agency that the navy can now detect surface and submarine units and destroy submarine units with drones.

"Iranian youths have designed the necessary equipment, including a type of sonar, to detect submarines by drones," Irani said.

Sonar uses sound waves to 'see' in the water.

Sonar, short for Sound Navigation and Ranging, helps explore and map the ocean because sound waves travel farther in the water than radar and light waves. It is commonly used by submarines, ships, helicopters, maritime patrol, and anti-submarine aircraft to detect their underwater targets.

Iran has an active navy force that operates in the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman, and the Caspian Sea.

In addition to its surface fleet, Iran has also developed a submarine force that includes both domestically produced and imported submarines. Iran has also invested heavily in missile technology, and its navy is equipped with a range of missiles and torpedoes that can be launched from ships and submarines.

#7 An airborne drone cannot use sonar to detect anything. There has to be something in the water to send out the sound waves. The US and other navies us sonobuoys for this.
