Most of the Iranian navy would be crushed during a war.
No destroyers or cruisers mean basically every surface ship is vulnerable until Iran can get a Bavar 373 like system on a future destroyer or cruiser.
What can Bavar 373 do when it is saturated with missiles?
We will lose every big naval asset in the first few hours. They will lose it too if they are close to our shores. Even Diego Garcia is not safe for them.
Early warning is important though. At least you can start leveling their infrastructures around earlier.
Deterrence comes from the ability to smash every single industry center, gas, oil, water and power infrastructure.
