The Justice Department has unveiled an indictment against a US-Iranian national for illegally exporting US-manufactured aircraft components to Iran.
The indictment accuses Jeffrey Chance Nader of conspiring to export aircraft components, totaling nearly three dozen pieces. The parts included those used in military aircraft like the F-4 fighter jet, violating US economic sanctions.
According to the indictment, Nader coordinated with Iran-based associates to acquire these components from US suppliers, falsely identifying his company, Pro Aero Capital, as the end user. The parts were intended to be shipped to Iran via the United Arab Emirates.
The FBI and the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security investigated the case and stopped the items before they could be exported.
The Justice Department emphasized its commitment to preventing military-grade equipment from reaching “hostile” governments.
“Attacks by Iran and its proxies on US allies in the Middle East and its ongoing supply of Russia with drones and other technology to be used in its illegal war against Ukraine demonstrate why we must do all that we can to stop Iran from acquiring U.S. parts, services, and technology,” commented US Attorney Matthew M. Graves for the District of Columbia.
