Iran’s rapid progress in the field of defence has taken the big powers by surprise and the latest to startle them are the drone carriers equipped with advanced technology and carrying a variety of missiles.

Shaheed Baqeri, Shaheed Mahdavi and Shaheed Roudaki are the latest addition to the Islamic Republic of Iran’s steadily expanding fleet capable of operating on the high seas in long distance missions.

The drones stationed on these ships are capable of attacking enemy’s aircraft and preventing airspace violations.

Shaheed Baqeri has a unique angled design that helps drones to remain concealed right until take off. The vessel has a small runway, indicating that its primary function is to deploy drones.

These drone carriers allow the Iranian navy to bring the unmanned aerial vehicles closer to any battlefield even far away from home.

Despite facing years of sanctions from the West, especially from the US, Iran has managed to produce its fleet of armed drones that have even cruised as far as Europe.

Iran’s drones have already made a mark on the international scene and in spite of the West’s wild accusations they have not worsened any of the crises plaguing the world.

Iran’s navy has also circumnavigated the world and is now planning a mission to ice covered Antarctica at the South Pole.

This shows the power and resolve of the Islamic Republic to not just safeguard its security but also promote peace and stability around the globe, in sharp contrast to the mischief-mongering and war-mongering policies of Washington.

The maritime activities of Iran also play a vital role in the trade and commercial sector, with vessels equipped with the latest technology to escort merchant ships through troubled waters and ward off pirates that prey on unprotected vessels.
