Iran builds three new "Jamaran" destroyers

The commander of the Iranian Navy said that the construction of new "destroyers", which will be improved versions of the Jamaran-type ships, is ongoing.

New ships for Iranian fleet, which received the designations Jamaran 3, Jamaran 4 and Jamaran 5, are being built at Iranian shipyards and will be shown to the public "in the future."

Iran received the first ship of the Jamaran type in February 2010, in the Iranian fleet it is classified as a “destroyer”, but in fact it is poorly armed with a corvette displacing 1420 tons and a speed of about 30 nodes. The basis of its electronic weapons is "new radar". But here, too, Iran overdid it. The radar has a parabolic antenna and therefore, most likely, a two-coordinate radar.

The ship is equipped with a helipad, but does not have a hangar. At the stern, the presence of the sonar raising and lowering system is not visible, so the ship probably does not have a towed sonar, which significantly reduces their ability to fight submarines.

        Well, finally we got to the ships.
        Rockets and drones have already been created, the fifth generation saolet is the same, submarines and torpedoes - heard, a monkey into space, air defense systems
        Iran has created a missile defense system "Symbol of Faith-373", which is better than the Russian C-300
        Such a loud statement was made by the Iranian Air Force General Shahroh Shahram

        The Iranian ISNA agency informs that "the domestic development - the anti-missile defense system, the Bavar-373 system (Symbol of Faith -373), is better than the Russian analogue - the S-300 system.

        Well now, having no analogues in the world, destroyers.

      Well, how can I say, the Treaty of Versailles banned the creation of warships with a displacement greater than (I don’t remember the number), but they created a bunch of high-speed torpedo boats, with which they carried out landing operations (either capturing a port in Norway, or Norway itself), and with their help they battered their enemies.
      So, of course, size is not the main thing, but speed, stealth is not the last criteria for evaluating effectiveness.
      And of course, the availability of modern weapons, but this is precisely the problem in Iran.

    The Persians once again decided to make people laugh by calling their light frigates (in fact, corvettes), built on the basis of British technologies of the late 60s, with the proud name "destroyers"
    The naval composition of the Iranian fleet:
    3 DEPL project 877, delivered from Russia to 1992, 1993, 1997 gg accordingly, the first Tareq-boat was repaired in 2012 by Iranian forces.

    Diesel-electric submarines of the "Fateh" type, one in service, the second is being built for the Caspian Sea - most likely similar to the German project 206
    20 mini submarine project Al-Ghadir- Iranian production, construction continues

    1 mini submarine project Al-Sabehat
    2 mini submarine project Nahang- North Korean project, built using the DPRK
    4 mini submarines of the Yugo project - delivered from the DPRK in the 90's
    Another Qaaem submarine is under construction, with a displacement of 1000 tons.
    Surface ships:
    3 light frigates of the British project "Vosper Mk.5" - "Alvand" - delivered under the Shah (4 were delivered in total, but one was sunk in 1988
    Americans), modernized by the Iranians, they are equipped with Chinese anti-ship missiles YJ-82 (C-802) -4 PU. The weaknesses of the ship include weak air defense - outdated shipborne air defense system "Sea Cat" (10 missiles);

    2 "destroyers", in Iranian terminology, but rather light frigates of the Moudge type: 1-Jamaran, entered the fleet in 2010, 2- Velayat for the Caspian Sea was launched on March 17 last year. They are a further development of the Alvand project. Displacement: 1420 tons. (for comparison, the displacement of the corvette of the project is 20380-2200 tons, and the MRK of the project is 21631-949 tons). Armament: 2 air defense systems "Merhab" (a copy of the American RIM-66 "Standard", 4 Iranian clones of the Chinese anti-ship missiles C-802 with a firing range of 80-120 km, 76-mm AU Fajr 27 (copy of Oto-Melar), 2 20-mm "Erlikon" with manual guidance. In total, it is planned to build 4-6 ships. Our project 11661 TFR "Tatarstan" and "Dagestan" can easily kill this ship in the Caspian, and "Dagestan" can be right in the port.

    Another frigate "Moudge 5" is under construction, laid down in 2012. Estimated displacement of 2,000-2,500 tons, armament similar to Moudge-class frigates, but a helicopter hangar is planned, which will house either a Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopter, or 2 Bell-Augusta 212
    3 Corvette:
    2 type Bayandor, American-built 60-s (all delivered 4, but 2 were sunk during the Iran-Iraq war), modernized by the Iranians, rearmament 4 anti-ship missiles S-802
    1 type Hamzeh, the former Shah yacht of the 1936 year of construction, on the Caspian Sea. Also armed with 4 RCC C-802.

      Missile boats are the most numerous class of ships of the Iranian Navy:
      10 type Houdong Chinese-built, transferred in 1994-1996, armed with 4 anti-ship missiles YJ-82 (C-802). Are part of the Navy "Guards of the Islamic Revolution"
      10 Kaman type German-built, according to the French Combattante II project, transferred in 1977-1981, originally armed with 2-4 launchers of American Harpoon anti-ship missiles, now 4 YJ-82 (C-802) anti-ship missiles are rearmed

      4 type Sina-Iranian built, further development of Kaman type RCA: 2 (Paykan, Joshan) in the Caspian, armed with 4 anti-ship missiles YJ-82 (C-802)

      8 Kalat, a semi-submersible boat built in North Korea, is armed with 4 Chinese anti-ship missiles YJ-82 (C-802).
      97 patrol boats:
      3 type American-built Parvin, re-equipped with 2 Iranian anti-ship missiles Nasr

      2 type Kaivan Iranian-built, armed with 1 40-mm AU, 2 ZU-23, 2 DShK

      92 Iranian Bavar Type

      1 minesweeper type Riazi
      Amphibious forces:
      4 TDC type Hengam
      2 landing ship type Iran Ajr
      landing ships of the type Iran Hormuz-24
      MDK type Iran Hormuz-21
      2 MDK type Chavoush
      Fouque type MDK (MIG-S-3700)
      Wellington hovercraft (BH-7)
      Eunice-6 hovercraft.

      Fleet Air Force:
      3 minesweeper RH-53D
      10 anti-submarine helicopters SH-3 Sea King

          Dear Alexander in the Caspian Sea, Iran had: 1 "destroyer" of the Jamaran type - Velayat, rather a light frigate built on the basis of the Vosper Mk.5 project, launched on March 17 last year, armed with 2 "Merhab" air defense systems (copy American RIM-66 "Standard", 4 Iranian clones of Chinese anti-ship missiles C-802 with a firing range of 80-120 km, 76-mm AU Fajr 27 (copy of Oto-Melar), 2 20-mm "Erlikon" with manual guidance.

          Our project 11661 TFR "Tatarstan" and "Dagestan" are capable of killing this ship, and the "Dagestan" is flying right in the port.
          2 RCA "Peykan" and "Joshuan" of the Sina-Iranian type, further development of the RCA of the Kaman type, the French project La Combattante II (built in 2003-2006). armed with 76-mm guns, 1 20-mm "Oerlikon" and 4 anti-ship missiles С-802, which came to Astrakhan in 2013.

          Former Shah's yacht "Khamzekh" built in 1936 (!), Armed with a 20-mm "Erlikon" and 2 anti-ship missiles S-802.
          However, in the middle of September last year at a shipyard in the city of Bender-Enzeli, located on the Caspian Sea, a submarine under construction from the Fateh project was noticed, which, however, is a little longer.

          Now, with the appearance of a submarine, it is likely that a second-hand 2-3 mini-submarines of the "Ghadir" type appear, of which Iran has about 20 and which can easily be airlifted to the Caspian by land, the balance of power may change dramatically. That is, it turns out that the Iranians can intercept our ships at the exit from their own bases. We have no ASW ships in the Caspian, and from submarines: the diesel-electric submarines of Project 636.3 are too large, and the 677 Lada is incomplete. As an option, there is also a mini-diesel-electric submarine of project 865 "Piranha", but the fleet refused these diesel-electric submarines ...

      That's it. Even the TFR of the Russian Federation surpass them, not to mention even the corvettes and frigates of the Russian Federation. In general, they do not understand why they are building. Most likely, either for internal propaganda, or to divert part of the forces of the ACG.

      This can hardly be called development. Of course they do the right thing, that they don’t whine, but this is the same thing that we want to build an aircraft carrier and destroyers, but we are building frigates and corvettes, and they kind of want to build destroyers, but in fact they are building corvettes and missile boats. But the RF is building at least another SSBN, nuclear submarines and diesel-electric submarines, and their capabilities on corvettes are running out.

I don’t understand what caused such disregard for the country that is good for us. After all, they did not support Dudaev, did not supply them with weapons, they gave us all the Chechen fighters who turned up with them. Medvedev betrayed them on the occasion of liberoids and did not fulfill the paid air defense contracts. They do not lick the place for liberoids. They will work and rise as South Korea.
