Drone Carrier
IRIS Shahid Bagheri C-110-4 (2025-2026) LOA 790′ / 241m TDISP 42,000 tons. Fitted with a “backwards angled” flight deck around the existing deckhouse, and has a flight deck aft as well as a ski-jump forwards. Reportedly struck by US forces during 2026 War on 28 February (yet to be confirmed – appears to be still operational days later). Converted from the South Korean container ship Perarin (2000) at Iran Shipbuilding & Offshore Industries Complex Co (ISOICO).
See also this satellite capture loaded in Apple Maps (current to 2026) which shows the drone carrier slightly further along in conversion, in drydock at the same facility, with sections of the flight deck installed.
