Iran's Shahed Drone Family Keeps Growing: New Report Reveals Full Lineup of All Variants
A new report by CSIS's Missile Threat Project documents the full spectrum of Iran's Shahed drone family, from low-cost one-way attack drones costing as little as $20,000–$50,000 per unit to reusable UCAVs and high-altitude ISR platforms. Deployed by Russia, Houthi forces, and Iranian proxies across multiple conflicts, the Shahed series has fundamentally reshaped modern warfare through saturation attack tactics.
