it seemed that they wanted to present this upgrade as soon as possible, they did not have time to paint the desert camouflage of the launch containers in naval gray.Sahand updated:
New radar and sayyad air defence missiles

wonder why they can't put them in upright position behind the fajr cannon above the deck . by that they can launch them faster and they don't need to use the erector mechanism which probably is as heavy as the missiles , there really is not much there, only some rope and hosesSahand updated:

One month ago they said Sahand will have the Navab medium range sam system with 2x range. also it was supposed to have 8 cruise missiles.As you can see they have also separated the superstructure where the 30mm CIWS Kamand is installed.

Therefore, the superstructure that supports the 30mm CIWS will certainly contain the 30mm ammunition inside.
Now the question to ask what will be used for in the separate superstructure :
1) Will it house an optronic guidance system, as on the IRIS Alborz frigate (72)?
2) or....... VLS for short-range anti-aircraft missiles?

8 cruise missile is not a problem , in sahand the cruise missiles are in middle of the ship they means the extra weight is in center of the mass , they can put another row of missile over it without disturbing the ship balance.One month ago they said Sahand will have the Navab medium range sam system with 2x range. also it was supposed to have 8 cruise missiles.
