The Iranian Navy's new ship, according to the commander, has successfully passed its initial tests and is in the final stages of construction. It will officially join the Navy after the completion of its technical and operational tests.

The intelligence vessel Shiraz is smaller than the Moudge-class frigate IRIS Jamaran launched in early 2010 in Bandar-e-Abbas, Iran.

The vessel is equipped with four Noor / C-802 surface-to-surface anti-ship cruise missiles, mounted in box launchers on the roof of the upper deck level between the radar and the mainmast pointing towards either side.

The Moudge-class vessels are powered by two 7,500 kW (10,000 hp) engines and use four diesel generators which each generate 550 kW (740 hp). They can reach a maximum speed of 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph).

Jamaran can accommodate a medium-sized helicopter and can also run a helicopter in-flight refueling (HIFR) operation when a helicopter approaches on the landing platform, which is not necessarily suited for landing operations.
