Israeli Hermes 900 Drone Shot Down
The video shows footage of an Israeli Hermes 900 attack drone that was shot down over Isfahan. This event marks the first time that visual evidence has been provided of Iranian forces successfully bringing down an aerial object, moving beyond mere claims. The drone is shown to be nearly intact, sustaining only minimal damage upon its recovery. This makes it a potentially valuable resource for technological study and reverse engineering efforts.
Recovery of Undamaged Munition
Adding to the significance of the event, the munition that the drone was carrying was also recovered in an undamaged state. The drone was armed with an Israeli Mikolit small guided glide bomb. This type of bomb is specifically designed for precision strikes against soft targets. These targets include radar installations and unarmoured vehicles.
