Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reportedly used a procurement network based in the United Arab Emirates to obtain advanced Chinese satellite communication equipment linked to its drone program. According to a Financial Times report published on Sunday, documents show that the IRGC’s Aerospace Force acquired military-grade Chinese satellite antennas and communication technology through a UAE-based company called Telisan by the end of 2025.
The report states that about 1.8 tons of satellite antenna equipment were shipped from Shanghai through Jebel Ali Port to Iran’s Bandar Abbas, later handed to the Iranian firm Ertebatat Faragostar Kish. Satellite imagery and GPS data indicated that the Iranian vessel involved transmitted misleading signals to conceal its location. Analysts cited in the report said the IRGC continues to use Middle Eastern commercial networks and free trade zones to obtain strategic military technology despite Western sanctions.
The Financial Times documents also claim that the equipment was used in Iran’s drone and missile operations, which caused significant damage to U.S. bases in the region. Neither UAE nor Iranian authorities commented on the report.
