Iranian Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi attended the ceremony and briefed reporters on the features of the hovercraft, which can be used in various types of missions carried out by the country’s armed forces. According to Vahidi, the Tondar hovercraft, which has been equipped with special systems of gathering information, can be used to patrol the country’s coastal waters, carry out medium-range reconnaissance missions on land and sea, conduct defensive asymmetric operations, and transport troops and equipment. He also said that the ability to pass through difficult flat terrains such as swampy, boggy, and sandy regions is one of the significant features of the hovercraft. He went on to say that various types of domestically designed weapons and guns such as rocket launchers and cannons can be installed on the hovercraft. Elsewhere in his remarks, Vahidi said that mass production of the hovercraft will increase the mobility and operational capabilities of Iranian naval forces. In addition, he said that through completing the project to manufacture the hovercraft, the experts at the Defense Ministry not only managed to build an indigenous combat vehicle but also improved the technology of domestically designed mechanical, hydraulic, and electronic systems.

Didn't work for North Korea, but at least they had a diamond satellite in space like an orientable cannon.
One of these can sink anything. With lots of them; Strait of Hormuz locked down by cheap hovercraft missile boats. It's not pathetic, it's very clever.

[QUOTE=IKTM;38450606]Couldn't you just, y'know, shoot that big ass balloon?[/QUOTE] It's in sections and probably armoured, tougher that it looks.
[QUOTE=IKTM;38450606]Couldn't you just, y'know, shoot that big ass balloon?[/QUOTE] It will float with the balloon deflated.
I like this phrase; [QUOTE]domestically designed weapons[/QUOTE] Sounds like they've got mum, dad and all the kids working on a surface-to-air missile in the living room.
