Nine photos of the craft were posted, which helped the Defense Department identify the craft as being manufactured in the U.S. The drone ended up being sold to an undercover officer from the Department of Homeland Security, who pretended to be an American middleman for a Russian buyer. After the drone was shipped to the U.S., it was traced back to Henson Chua, who now faces up to 20 years in prison.
