(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - Russia is trying to reassert itself as a global superpower and has increased its arms sales to Lebanon and Syria as a part of that effort, according to Yiftah Shapir of Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies. Moscow is set to sell Syria the Yakhont land-to-sea missile with a range of 300 km., that would be a "game changer" if it fell into the hands of Syria's ally, Hizbullah, Shapir said Thursday. Shapir discussed the sale of Israeli UAVs to Russia in recent years, noting that Russia is not planning on arming its military with Israeli weapons. "They want to copy the UAV technology and reproduce it. This was made clear during the sale." "My greatest fear is that in the future, we could see this same UAV technology in the hands of enemies. This could reach Hizbullah, and that would change things," Shapir warned. 2010-11-19 08:28:38Full Article
Drones Sold to Russia Could One Day Serve Hizbullah
