Commander of the naval force of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says the latest addition to the force, the Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis warship, bears the message of “readiness” for the country’s enemies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vessel that was inducted earlier in the month, features sophisticated radar-evading technologies, and can cruise within a radius of 2,000 nautical miles without being detected. It relies on four homegrown propulsion systems, and has a naval endurance of 14 days.<\/p>\n

“Abu Mahdi Muhandis bears the message of peace and friendship for the Muslim countries of the Persian Gulf region,” Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri told Iran’s al-Alam Arabic-language television news network on Tuesday. “But if ill-wishers sought to create a problem, the vessel would bear the message of readiness in the face of the enemies,” he added.<\/p>\n

“We enjoy complete readiness, and should be constantly ready. In the same context, the drills that we hold in the region is indicative of our readiness,” the commander noted.<\/p>\n

“The Persian Gulf region is home to us and neighboring countries,” Tangsiri said.<\/p>\n

Foreigners resort to “fabricating enemies” so they can extend their regional presence and keep up their arms sales here, Tangsiri said.<\/p>\n

This is while, “foreigners’ military presence [in the Persian Gulf region] makes no proper sense for either the people of the region or [concerning the issue of] regional security,” he noted, adding, “Foreign [military] presence in the region is disruptive to [regional] security.”<\/p>\n

“There is no need for extra-regional presence [here], and establishment of calm takes place by the agency of the regional countries.”<\/p>\n

Tangsiri, meanwhile, proposed taking place of joint naval exercises among the region’s Muslim countries towards enhancement of their ability at preserving the regional security.<\/p>\n
