Iran Unveils Drone Bomber



Karrar - Iranian long-range unmanned bomber

(Tehran, Iran) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad unveiled a long-range unmanned bomber aircraft earlier today to send "a main message of peace and friendship" and to be "an ambassador of death."

The range of the Karrar is 620 miles and it reportedly can carry up to four cruise missiles, two 250-pound bombs or one 500-pound bomb.

Ahmadinejad said the Karrar would "keep the enemy paralyzed in his bases." Strangely, Ahmadinejad's pronouncements have a quality of "déjà vu" about them. As I recall, there was another bombastic Middle East leader several years ago whose signature pronouncement was "The Mother of All Battles." Curiously, we haven't heard from that guy lately.
