Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi made the remarks at Tehran Friday Prayers, a day after two Ghadir-class submarines capable of launching subsurface-to-surface missiles, torpedoes and mines joined Iran's naval fleet.
Khanzadi noted that a 955-Ghadir submarine, and a next-gen Fateh-class strategic submarine, and a completely domestically-manufactured Sahand destroyer will join the southern naval fleet today.
He added that a next-gen Moudge-class destroyer (Sahand) and a third generation Jamaran-class destroyer will also join the fleet in the Persian Gulf on Saturday.
According to him, Dena-class destroyers and another Jamaran-class destroyer will be re-constructed in a few months and join the naval fleet.
