Jamaran (UK Vosper Mk 5 derivative)

IRIS Jamaran was the lead ship of the Iranian Moudge-class frigate launched in early 2010 in Bandar-e-Abbas, Iran. Iran stated that the design and building of Jamaran was among the greatest achievements of the Iranian Navy and IRGC Navy and the ship's launch marked a major technological leap for Iran's naval industries. The ship was designed for a crew of 140. Jamaran combined anti-submarine assets with other systems of weapons capable of dealing with surface and air threats as well. Jamaran was sunk on 28 February 2026 by a U.S. airstrike while in port.
