Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) released performance specifications for the Shahed-136 one-way attack unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) when it displayed one publicly for the first time in an exhibition in Qom from 13 May.

The poster behind the UAV said it has a range of 2,500 km, which is the same performance that Yemen's Houthi rebels attributed to the Shahed-136 they unveiled as the domestically produced Waeid in March 2021.

The Shahed-136 weighs 200 kg with a 50 kg warhead, according to the IRGC poster, although it did not specify whether this includes the booster rocket that drops off after the UAV is launched from a rail. It identified the UAV's engine as the four-cylinder MD550, which gives it a speed of 185 km/h.
