There is a Iranian joke circulating now on social media with Iran saying to the US “that if you threaten or pressure us more we will target the Milad Tower in Tehran next”.
Truly a damaging loss of reputation by Iranian armed forces.
Also why even build these types of corvettes with no defense system? If one outdated C-802 missile can take it out, then what is the point? Hopefully Iran starts developing passive defense measures for ALL types of Iranian warships not just the big ones.
This ship was defenseless and even if detected the missile could do nothing against it.
