Iran is reportedly looking to study and potentially reverse-engineer a captured U.S. Dive-LD autonomous underwater drone seized near the strategic Strait of Hormuz. The Pentagon says the older-model vehicle malfunctioned and did not carry classified sonar, radar or other sensitive systems, but experts say Iran could still examine its hardware and mechanical technology. Tehran has previously sought to exploit captured U.S. military technology, including the RQ-170 Sentinel, making the Dive-LD capture a potential intelligence and propaganda win. --- Iran US Drone | Dive-LD | US Navy Drone | Iran Reverse Engineering | Strait Of Hormuz | Iran Military | US Iran War | Underwater Drone | Pentagon | Iran News | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News #irandrone #usnavy #iran #straitofhormuz #usiran #militarynews #firstpostlive #firstpost #newslive #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #news #internationalnews #trendingnews Fi
