According to the military, the exercise will include launching various surface-to-surface cruise missiles, submarine torpedoes, coastal and maritime special operations operations operations exercises, and drones and electronic warfare.
Iran’s logistics ship “Mokran” participated in the exercise on that day. It is understood that as one of the largest “helicopter aircraft carriers” of the Iranian navy, the Mokland Maritime Base will provide logistical support for the country’s navy’s combat fleet in international waters.
Iran’s Tasnim News Agency said that the ship can carry seven helicopters and carry 100,000 tons of fuel and supplies, and can sail for 1,000 days without landing.
In addition, it is equipped with an up-to-date data collection system for processing and analysis of information and provision to the Coast Command and Control Center.

This military exercise is the third exercise of the Iranian armed forces this month after a large-scale drone exercise of the Iranian army and the maritime exercise of the paramilitary force of the Revolutionary Guards, Baski.
The exercise was intended to warn the United States that Iran was capable of responding to any provocation from the enemy.
