Iran has stingers?

After a chat with a friend , he said that Iran got a shed load of stingers , that were supplied to Afghanistan in 1980`s by the USA in the fight against Russia

These have been `reverse engineered`(or as seekerof would say , checking to make sure there isn`t any stolen Iranian tech in them ) so there are literally thousands of the damn things in Iran.


Thoughts?

Ever read the book "Ghost Wars" by Steve Coll?

No, No you have it all wrong.

Those stingers are to be used for peaceful purposes only.

The government calls them "Energy delivery systems, and they will be filled with nuclear material, but only to deliver the said fuel to remote areas of Iran so they too can benefit from the wonderful peaceful NUCLEAR ENERGY program that Iran is pushing to have.
