Sahand, along with two other vessels, to the Gulf of Aden to protect Iranian-flagged ships in the high seas.
Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said the "
Sahand" destroyer, which was inducted into the navy last year, has been sent on its first overseas mission to the Gulf of Aden, according to the official IRNA news agency.

Baghdad, (NINA) -Iranian destroyer
Sahand has arrived in the Gulf of Aden and settled there on its first long-term mission.
His real first name is
Sahand. He was brought to Australia by his parents, disillusioned revolutionaries, when he was four.
For the first time in 2017-2018 sugar beets have been planted on a 35-hectare-area near
Sahand dam, director of the agriculture organization of Hashtrood county of East Azerbaijan Province Majid Ahmadi said in an interview with IRNA.
In a ceremony carried live on state television, the
Sahand destroyer -- which can sustain voyages lasting five months without resupply -- joined Iran's regular navy at a base in Bandar Abbas on the Gulf.
State TV reported Saturday that it had taken six years to build the 1,300-ton vessel, named
Sahand after a mountain in northern Iran.
" "The destroyer of
Sahand has great capabilities and is more sophisticated than the frigate Jamaran and Damavand," he said.
