Avtobaza-M models

Avtobaza is a Russian ground-based radar jamming and deception system that may have been used to bring down an American RQ-170 in the Iran-US RQ-170 incident and force it to land in Iran where it was captured.[1]

It was also used by militia to force a drone flying above Crimea to land in 2014.[2]
