As drone warfare and electronic warfare become central to modern conflicts, renewed attention is focusing on Iran’s controversial 2011 capture of the U.S. RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone. Tehran claimed it did not shoot down the classified CIA-operated aircraft but instead hijacked it through sophisticated electronic warfare techniques, including GPS spoofing and signal manipulation. Iran alleged the drone was tricked into believing it was returning to base before landing intact inside Iranian territory. While the exact details remain disputed, the incident transformed military thinking on navigation warfare, highlighting how electronic deception can neutralize advanced platforms without firing a shot.
