Why Iran’s Tondar Could Be the Most Surprising Missile Boat You’ve Never Heard Of. Explained.

Iran introduced the Tondar missile boats in the 1990s through China. Inspired by Russian Osa designs, they quickly gained attention in the Persian Gulf. Tondar became important because of its anti-ship missiles. The boat measures about 39 meters in length and 200 tons in weight. With three diesel engines it reaches 35 knots speed. A shallow draft and 1500 km range make it ideal for Gulf waters. Tondar carries four anti-ship missiles. Initially equipped with C-801, later upgraded to the Iranian Noor, a variant of the C-802. With ranges up to 200 km, these weapons can threaten large warships. Its armament includes a 30mm twin cannon at the bow and a 23mm gun at the stern. These provide close defense against small boats and low-flying threats. A search radar and fire-control radar support targeting. The main weakness is lack of surface-to-air missiles. This makes Tondar vulnerable to modern aircraft and anti-ship weapons. However, the IRGC uses swarm tactics and hit-and-run operations to maximize effectiveness. __________________________________________________ 🧠How This Video Was Made This video is visual created using A.I 3D Tools.
