Western intelligence reveals what Iran will get from Russia in exchange for drones

IsraelInfo reported the information. 

This information was published by Israeli Channel 12 citing Western intelligence agencies that monitor military cooperation between Moscow and Tehran.

According to the sources, Russia will soon transfer Su-35 multi-purpose fighter aircraft to Iran. In particular, the 24 fighters, which were originally intended for Egypt. Since the US convinced Cairo to abandon the deal, Russia started looking for new buyers for the aircraft. 

Now that Iran supplies drones to the Russian army, the issue is resolved. Russian instructors are allegedly training Iranian pilots to pilot the aircraft. 

• On December 23, the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad warned that Iran would increase arms supplies to Russia. 
• On December 24, Chief of the Ukrainian Defense Intelligence Kyrylo Budanov said Russia and Iran concluded a deal to supply 1700 attack drones to Russia, 540 of which  were used in attacks on Ukraine.
