Iran says new vessel will be equipped with hypersonic missiles

Real or the usual Iranian vaporware to frighten the unbelievers?
[Rudaw] Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
on Monday said that its new Damavand-2 frigate will be equipped with hypersonic missiles, with the warship being the latest in Iran’s advancing military capabilities.

The Iranian navy on Saturday said that its northern fleet will receive a Damavand-class frigate in the near future, with the warship being an advanced type of the Jamaran frigate added to the navy in 2014 and having the capabilities to carry helicopters, missiles, torpedoes, modern guns, and air defense weapons, state media reported.

Shahram Irani, rear admiral in the Iranian navy, said that the latest vessel will be equipped with hypersonic missiles as well as the most advanced defense equipment. According to IRNA, the frigate is scheduled to be added to the navy in the "coming days."

In early June, Iran unveiled its first hypersonic ballistic missile, Fattah (conqueror in Persian), with a range of up to 1,400 kilometers and the ability to penetrate all anti-missile systems. The missile is produced by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) aerospace unit.

The Iranian defense ministry in late May unveiled a new ballistic missile with capabilities to strike targets 2,000 kilometers away and carry warheads weighing 1,500 kilograms. The US State Department said in response that Iran’s proliferation of ballistic missiles posed a "serious threat" to the international security.

In July of last year, Iran unveiled its first fleet of naval vessels capable combat drones.
