Iran’s Navy to Receive New Combat Destroyer
Amir Admiral Shahram Irani, Commander of the Navy, said: "A new combat reconnaissance destroyer is going to join the Navy's fleet in the near future."
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Monitoring: The Navy chief announced on Friday that the new warship “Zagros” is a combat destroyer that is also intended to gather intelligence.
He noted that the modern destroyer is equipped with a hangar that can store a helicopter.
The military vessel has been fully furnished and will join the Navy’s fleet upon the permission of the organizational structure, the commander said.  
Commenting on the state of Sahand destroyer, which was salvaged after sinking in Iran’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas in July, Rear Admiral Irani said the vessel is being prepared rapidly.
After taking part in a massive war game, Sahand will be dispatched to the northern waters of the Indian Ocean for a mission to ensure security, he noted.
Sahand destroyer joined the Navy in December 2018.
