Kian 2 was unveiled in September 2019. Kian is made for various missions; one of its missions is to destroy the intended targets in to-the-point and suicide missions.
It can destroy targets far beyond the country's borders with high flight continuity.
This drone is made with a wingspan of about 3.5 to 4 meters and a length of about 4.5 meters. Larger dimensions and thicker wings are suitable for flying at subsonic speeds and allow it to carry much more fuel. The operational range of this drone is more than 1,000 km.
It is also possible to install some kind of enemy radar wave reception system inside this drone, which can make it a suitable option for the anti-radar role. It uses two air inlets with an advanced design to match the fuselage and its sides. This drone is a Delta wing type that provides desirable flight characteristics for it at high speeds.
