Azerbaijan is using drones to carry out spying missions along its
border with Iran, Iran's Press TV reported.
Iranian military experts said Azerbaijan has been using Orbiter
ultra-light drones assembled with Israeli help, as well as Hermes-450
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) "for control and surveillance
missions."
Israel has sold 10 Hermes-450 drones, manufactured by Elbit Systems,
to Azerbaijan between 2009 and 2012, the agency said, adding that
Israeli satellites "are closely cooperating with Azeri drones."
The Hermes-450 UAVs can be equipped with offensive systems such
as air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles, as well as electronic
warfare equipment.
According to Arannews.ir, referring to this report, Iranian Defense
Minister Ahmad Vahidi said that they had not received information
that Azerbaijan was using drones to carry out spying missions along
Iran border.
