TEHERAN, Iran - Iranian state TV broadcast video on Thursday of what it said was the stealth US drone that Teheran says it downed earlier this week.
The more than two minutes of footage showed Iranian military officials inspecting what state TV identified as the RQ-170 Sentinel drone. The cream-colored aircraft appeared intact and undamaged.
The chief of the aerospace division of Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards, General Ami Ali Hajizadeh, said Iranian forces brought the aircraft down with an electronic ambush, causing minimum damage to the drone.
