Has proven critical in the current war.

Originally manufactured in Russia, the US is said to have reverse engineered it into the LUCAS drone.

Turkish manufacturer Baykar is said to be producing a version of the Shahed at their facility in Morocco. The Morocco version is said to have been used in smoke and mirrors ops organized from UAE to strike Saudi oil facilities

"Unlike ballistic missiles, which require major infrastructure to assemble and deploy, these drones can be assembled in a garage and launched from the back of a pickup truck. Iran may be able to continue producing and launching new Shaheds almost indefinitely. While efforts to stop them “left of launch” must continue, American forces may face Shahed attacks for the foreseeable future." - Forbes
