Your support makes all the difference.iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad yesterday inaugurated the country's first domestically built unmanned bomber aircraft, calling it an "ambassador of death" to Iran's enemies.
The 4-metre-long drone aircraft can carry up to four cruise missiles and will have a range of 620 miles (1,000km), according to a state TV report – not far enough to reach arch-enemy Israel. "The jet, as well as being an ambassador of death for the enemies of humanity, has a main message of peace and friendship," said Mr Ahmadinejad.
