Iran is deploying Shaheed suicide drones, the same weapons used by Russia in Ukraine, to attack Western targets including America's consulate in Dubai. These drones cost only $10,000-$20,000 to produce, feature fibreglass construction with GPS systems and 50 kilograms of high explosive, and fly low and slow to evade radar detection. The drones, powered by simple motorbike engines, are being mass-produced and can overwhelm sophisticated defence systems like the Iron Dome by attacking in groups of five to ten, making them significantly more cost-effective than the million-dollar interceptor missiles required to stop them.
