Iran says it can make copy of captured CIA drone

TEHRAN, Iran —
A senior Iranian lawmaker says Tehran can now manufacture a copy of an advanced CIA spy drone captured last year.

Avaz Heidarpour, who sits on parliament's national security committee, says experts have reverse-engineered the RQ-170 Sentinel craft and Iran now is capable of launching a production line for the unmanned aircraft.

His remarks were posted on the parliament's website, icana.ir, on Wednesday.

Iranian officials frequently announce technological and military breakthroughs, most of which are impossible to confirm independently.

(continued, ah! they are meant to be undetectable?)

Given that the Iranians recently published a picture of an Iranian drone that happened to be a doctored picture of something Japanese, I think I'll take the above claims with a rather large pinch of table salt.
