Mohajer-10

The Mohajer-10 is Iran's longest-range indigenous MALE drone and the flagship of Qods Aviation's product line, first unveiled at an IRGC Aerospace Force exhibition in 2023. A significant advance over the Mohajer-6, it features a turboprop engine, a claimed range of 2,000 km, and the ability to carry up to four precision-guided munitions including the Sadid-345 bomb and Qaem-5 missile. Its twin-boom pusher layout with a large rectangular wing gives it a distinctive profile, and IRGC officials have highlighted its ability to reach targets throughout the Middle East — including Israel — without aerial refueling.

The Mohajer-10's unveiling came during a period of intense scrutiny of Iran's drone export activities: with Shahed-136s being used by Russia in Ukraine and Mohajer-6s supplying Russian forces for artillery spotting, Western governments imposed sanctions on Qods Aviation and HESA. The Mohajer-10 represents the next tier of this export capability — a platform with strategic range and multi-mission flexibility that Iran could supply to proxy forces in Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq, and Syria, or use directly for deterrent signaling. Its long-range strike capability, if proven in combat, would represent the most significant qualitative advance in Iran's unmanned arsenal since the Shahed-136.
