    Is “smuggle” really the right word here? Did Iran hide them under their luggage?

      Evaded sanctions is better terminology here but smuggle is more of millenail journalism headline writing style.

      I don’t get it, must drive clicks or some shit

        I don’t know…some Iranian trying to explain why they have an airplane engine in their carry-on luggage would be rather funny

    The Iranian people get some quality European hardware and not that Wallstreet infested Boeing trash.

    Will they still get service support, it being a grey import?
