Iranul anunță capturarea unei drone submarine americane de 2,5 milioane de dolari în Ormuz. Pentagonul: „A suferit o defecțiune”

Iran has announced the capture of an American underwater vehicle, the Dive-LD, near the Strait of Hormuz. The Pentagon confirms the loss but claims the drone malfunctioned over a day prior and was not carrying sensitive equipment. Iranian authorities describe the incident as a significant capture of advanced military technology. The Dive-LD, produced by Anduril, is designed for various military missions and can operate at depths of up to 6,000 meters. While the U.S. acknowledges the vehicle's capture, it disputes the circumstances, stating the drone was not collecting sensitive data at the time of its loss. Anduril has confirmed the loss but downplayed its strategic importance, emphasizing the vehicle's design for risky environments.
