Fateh submarine soon to join Iran Navy
Iran's Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan says the indigenous Fateh (Conqueror) submarine will join the Navy in May, Press TV reported.

Dehqan said on Saturday that the submarine has undergone necessary tests and its faults have been corrected. He said the submarine will probably join the Navy on May 24 which marks the anniversary of the liberation of Khorramshahr city during the eight-year imposed war with Iraq.

Fateh weighs nearly 500 tons and it is Iran's newest semi-heavy submarine.
"Semi-heavy"?
