2 warships and 4 frigates join Iranian Navy








Speaking to reporters in Iran’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas on Monday, Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said the two warships, a Sirik-class and a Kalat-class, have been equipped with surface-to-surface missile systems.He also said that the four frigates, dubbed Fajr, Shams, Fath and Nour, are employed for maritime patrol operations, adding that they are armed with “sensitive and indigenous missiles.”

“Given their small size, the frigates are hidden from the enemy’s radars, and this increases our missile capability,” the commander explained.Also, Rear Admiral Abbas Zamini, a senior Navy commander said 10 Iranian vessels have been equipped with Nour, Qader and Nasr cruise missile systems.
