Iran Unveils Nearly 100 Missile-Launching Boats And Naval Supply Ships

EurAsian Times: Iran Unveils World’s First ‘Air Defense Boat’ Capable Of Firing Deadly Missiles From Its Vertical Launch System – Analyst 

Iran’s second navy, under the IRGC, has developed the world’s first very small air-defense boat amid rising concerns about Tehran’s burgeoning military power that is seen as a threat by countries in the Persian Gulf and Israel. 

The development of a small defense boat is unique in its own right. 

This is the first-of-its-kind vessel Iran has likely produced for domestic use by the Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy, according to a report by Naval Analyst and OSINT expert HI Sutton. 

Subsequently, a video surfaced on social media in which a Nawab surface-to-air missile is released from the Vertical Launch System of the boat. According to military observers, this air defense boat was modified and converted from the British Bladerunner. This is due to the hull’s shape, which resembles the Bladerunner.

Make these things unmanned and you've got a weapon system with great export potential. We should be copying this.

The Iranians are the original swarm. It is a no robotic swam, but it is a swarm.

There is not much room to maneuver in the the small pond called the Persian Gulf.

You have to swarm them first or suffer the consequences.
