The Deylaman warship is a Moudge-class destroyer, reportedly built entirely with Iranian components. Able to move at a speed of 26 knots, the warship is reportedly capable of wiping out targets located at a distance of up to 2 km.
Iran's Military Achievements Media (unofficial) published footage of the Deylaman warship setting sails in the Caspian Sea.
The Deylaman warship has new Qadir cruise missiles at its disposal with a firing range of 300 km.
Furthermore, the naval electronic engineering enables the crew to detect and track air, surface, and underwater targets at a distance of up to 200 km. In addition, the destroyer has a helipad to afford a helicopter on board.
The first Russian naval drones will be delivered to the Russian armed forces by the end of 2023 and tested in the zone of the special military operation in Ukraine, Mikhail Danilenko, managing director of Kingisepp Machine-Building Plant (KMZ), told Sputnik.
"The Ministry of Defense has already agreed on the delivery of the first 10 units, which we must send by the end of this year. This will be the first experimental batch that will be tested in the zone of the special military operation," Danilenko said.
Russia's armed forces in the Black Sea may soon get their hands on a new weapon that can be used against both naval and coastal targets.
New unmanned boat drones are expected to be delivered to the Russian military by the end of the year to be tested in the Ukrainian conflict zone, managing director of Kingisepp Machine-Building Plant (KMZ) Mikhail Danilenko told Sputnik.
While such drones can pose a considerable threat to ships, they can also be used against coastal targets, Russian military historian Yury Knutov said.
“Seeing how Ukraine currently has no navy, these drones are going to be used against coastal targets,” he speculated, noting, however, that any warship Ukraine tries to use under its flag will likely become a target for them.
