Iran released for the first time a video on the US RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone, which was downed and captured by the Islamic Republic in December 2011, Press TV reported.

The video, broadcast Wednesday, was taken by the drone’s camera, and included views from the area surrounding the Kandahar base as the drone was landing.

The Kandahar base is located about 420 kilometers from Iran’s eastern borders in Afghanistan. It hosts different types of aircraft used by the US in different military operations including spy and reconnaissance ones.

The majority of drone assassination attacks by the US on Afghanistan and Pakistan are carried out by the aircraft stationed at this base.
