Shahed drones are Iranian unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) and loitering munitions developed by Shahed Aviation Industries. Shahed drones are manufactured both in Iran and in Russia, with the Russian variant building upon Iranian plans. Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, both variants have been deployed by Russian forces against Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian war and by Iranian forces during the 2026 Iran war.
