Ukraine Intelligence Finds American Parts Used In Iranian Drones: ReportKEY POINTS- The investigation included a Mohajer-6 drone that was hacked mid-flight and landed intact- Many of the parts used for the manufacturing of these drones aren't under export controls- Iran may also be using Chinese knock-offs of Western parts for the manufacture of dronesDespite a comprehensive effort by Western allies to sanction and block Tehran from sending drones and missiles to Moscow for the war in Ukraine, a media report based on Ukrainian intelligence findings says most of the parts used in the Iranian drones originated from companies in the U.S. and other allied nations.According to a report by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) which reviewed the documents, Ukrainian intelligence found that most of the components used to manufacture the Iranian drones were American in origin.Roughly half of over 200 technical components of the captured drone were made by firms based in the U.S., as per the report, while nearly a third of the components were of Japanese origin, including the drone's servomotors.According to the WSJ, the findings by the Ukrainian military intelligence were also verified by the Independent Anti-Corruption Commission, or NAKO, a Kyiv-based nonprofit with expertise in assessing military contracts and arms.Following the successful counter-offensive by Ukrainian forces, and faced with the challenge of depleting military resources, Russia has begun using a variety of cheaper Iranian-made drones to carry out a barrage of attacks on critical civilian infrastructure in Ukraine."
