Strong engine for small boats. It was close to take off the sea surface and fly LOL
Congrats.

Not that strong! Future version will be stronger! 74kph is only 40 Knots! The British Challenger has a top speed of 70knots 130kph and has 2 1000hp engines

Iran needs to mass produce missile boats that can hit targets from at least 15-20km away it's better to sacrifice a little speed for greater targeting capabilities!

During war time even at 100kph within 15km US ships have a good 10 min to use their naval cannons to take out any boat that wants to get within 5km of them and that is plenty if you have smart rounds

Iran should be building boats like this at a rate of 50-100 per year some with missiles & others with Torpedo's

Anything smaller with weapons that have to get within 15km is nothing but a nuisance against the US and other than for deploying mines in their path their speed means nothing and will be useless unless you can deploy 1000's against each ship and that make absolutely no sense at all!


If it was me I would mass produce this in large numbers & equip them with different capabilities rather than building various types of small vessels under 100 tons

Out of curiosity, why isn't IRI investing in UMV/USV the way she has invested in UAVs? Is it due to greater complexity, or lack of knowledge?! It makes sense for IRI to have marine robotic capability. Also, it seems that IRI has not embraced the new naval vessel designs the way western navies have.
 
Anyone recognize the "Tous" powerplant? It appears to be a V6 4-cycle engine. Has the unit been improvised from an automobile engine currently assembled in Iran? I took some time scanning for candidates but my attention has been drawn elsewhere.

Who say's they don't it's just not as extensive due to the boundaries of communication

Iran made underwater PBXN 111 & PBXIR 103 Plastic Bonded explosive substances ماده منفجره زیرآبی



 
I have a question. Does Iran have the Yakhont anti ship missile? I know Syria has them and so does Hezbollah however I rarely hear that Iran has it. It ould be a perfect weapon to add to their asymmetrical naval strategy. Also if they do not have it since both Hezbollah and Syria got could they transfer the technology and know how to Iran behind the scenes?

Yes Iran has that missile too. However, it has never shown it.
