Iran Studies Ukraine War To Update Military Strategy

Tehran is betting on cheap drones and artificial intelligence.

Iran is studying the experience of the war in Ukraine to improve the conduct of warfare, particularly with the use of drones. There it considers it necessary to make significant changes in the structure of Iran's armed forces.

It is noted by Financial Times. Ukraine's experience in fighting an enemy that is numerically superior is of particular interest.

Iran is analyzing the experience of the war in Ukraine to adapt its defense doctrine. Ukraine's confrontation with a numerically superior enemy is seen as an example for the development of its own defense industry and battlefield tactics.

The need for significant changes in the structure of Iran's armed forces was stated by Hosein Dadvand, one of the military leaders in charge of training personnel. According to him, the experience of the war in Ukraine has shown the critical importance of mass use of low-cost drones and introduction of artificial intelligence technologies. He also notes the need to increase the army's mobility and strengthen cyber operations.

Also in Iranian military circles, discussions about the directions of rearmament continue. Some experts believe it is necessary to further develop unmanned systems, while for others the priority is the purchase of modern aircraft and modernization of outdated infrastructure.

In addition, Iran speaks about the internal problems of the army, such as miscalculations in planning, lack of qualified personnel and the need for technical upgrades.
