This ship's anti-ship and anti-air missiles have a larger range than the F-22P. Now lets not turn this into a X Vs. Y discussion. That is not what i intended to do. I was just giving you some specifications that you can compare with the F-22P.

The destroyer may or may not be advanced than f22p but they made it on their own (indigenous)
 
It is a frigate. Journalists don't know anything about the military. Just yesterday, the BBC showed a video of an APC and called it a Tank. The journalists just used a dictionary and literally translated as a Destroyer in English. This is a frigate and the Iranian Navy has said this already in Persian.

By the way, there is nothing wrong with its' firepower, it has a SAM system with a range of at least 32km, . It also has anti-ship missiles with a range of 200km. That is more firepower than the F-22p.

I feel it might be a little too light to be a frigate. 1420 tonnes is larger than a standard corvette, but much lighter than a modern frigate. Even the lightest frigates are more than 3000t. Jamaran is more like a heavy corvette. The Turkish Milgem class has a 2000t displacement and is classified as a corvette. Ofcouse, I am basing all this on Western and Russian classification. Iran might use a different classification.

Abi, a ship's firepower is not measured just by the range of tis SAMs or AShMs, but also its systems, and more importantly, its integration with the rest of the Navy. Even 1970 era SAMs had great range. Also 200 km AShMs are meaningless unless the ship can track its opponents at 200km! So the AShMs range will be limited by the ship's radar effectiveness. Also, Jamaran seems to lack any stealth features, something that is common in 21st century warships.

Look I am not trying to put the ship down. My knowledge is not sufficient for me to carry out an in-depth study on this. But I do feel that this ship is limited by its size. It might not be able to take on larger vessels equipped with better radars and EW capabilities.

However, this hip can be very effective in conjunction with a destroyer, should Iran ever build/acquire one.
 
First of All Congrat for Iran nation...

I also think that Jamaran should not be classified like Destroyer cause of size and displacement based on Western standarts. I want to give some examples from Turkish ship programs by tonnages to enlighten this issue.

Milgem Corvette= 2000 Tonnes
TF-100 Frigate = 3500-4000 tonnes (Planned)
TF-2000 AAW Destroyer = 6500-7000 Tonnes(Planned)

About Development criterias of a ship to call it like "Advanced" in current century depends on;

Stealth design characteristics
Stealth Paints
Stealth Materials
Decreased IR track not to be hunted by enemy missiles
Development of 3D radars
Sonar detection capabilities(Ceramic and transducer capabilities)
Torpedo countermeasure systems
The range of Anti-ship missiles along with Radars
Command-Control software effectiveness
Otonom detection-tracking capabilities and intelligent computer systems..


If Jamaran carries many of those, We can call it like Advanced...
 
It isn't meant to act as a destroyer. Using your logic, the latest FACs in the world are useless because they're not as capable as destroyers?

tehn what does this mean "Iran launches advanced Jamaran destroyer "
 
It is very good achievement on behalf of iranian people and scientists but I also think it is more along the class of a frigate.

It is a Frigate according to the Iranian Navy. You see, "warship" in Persian sort of translates into "destroyer" and journalists cannot tell the difference between a Frigate and a Destroyer.
