Hazem (Persian: پهپاد حازم) is a type of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) used by the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Hazem is a long-range UAV that can also be used to bombard targets. According to the commander of the air defense headquarters, the Hazem was designed in three models; short, medium and long range. They were created for a hidden layer Anbiya Air Defense Base Camp by air defense experts. The UAV is used in reconnaissance missions. Hazem UAVs can be armed with explosives.[1][2][3]
One researcher says the Hazem is unlikely to have a serious tactical impact for Iran in high-intensity warfare because of the drone's lack of stealth.[4]
