right translation:امیر خانزادی به وضعیت ناوشکن دماوند که سال گذشته در ساحل بندر انزلی دچار سانحه شده بود نیز اشاره کرد و گفت: در حال حاضر نیز در حال ساخت ناوشکن دماوند هستیم و امیدواریم در دی ماه 97 با ظرفیتها و قابلیتهای بالاتر به بهرهبرداری برسد
Amir Khonzadi also mentioned the demolition of Damavand destroyed last year on the coast of Bandar Anzali and said: "We are already building Damavand destroyers and hope to be operational in January of this year with more capacities and capabilities."
sorry but I lived an automatic translator,
From this translation it is not said that the Damavand (77) which has been broken into three parts is rebuilt,
but that the Damavand is built,
that in fact could be a new hull and completed with the recovered components, and that this ship will keep the same name Damavand.
However, if my automatic translator has made mistakes, I kindly ask for an exact translation from Iranian users
Thanks in advance
Regardless of the date (which google earth labeled 2018.4.17), It's width is lower than Damavand(11m).in a Russian site the user "hufden" has published this image,
which identifies Bandar Anzali from the coordinates, where it is possible to see that the shipbuilding blocks are visible in the shipyard.
Since he did not find any confirmation in the Iranian press, the user asked if they are part of the hull of a new frigate.
I ask the experts of this discussion whether this is really a recent photo (the date printed in the photo is 4-17-2018) or it is an old image during the Damavan construction period.
thanks for a possible answer
Navy chief commander:
Fateh submarine and Sahand destroyer will join the navy before 2019 (1397.9), Damavand destroyer will return to service around the same time (1397.10).

They probably are making a complete new Damavand . but I wonder from where they want to get the money to finish it in 10month.Navy chief commander:

well I really cant see what for , except clearing the Port , after so much time under water its certain that the electronic are completely useless ,ind if the report is correct and the engine was failed before accident happen , then the engine is now a useless failed engine which for several month is soaked under water .I do not know if it's recent, but this video was published 7 days ago,
the boat makes a short sea voyage from the port of Bandar Anzali, in the video we see that where the Damavand shipwrecked (77) there are no more wrecks, therefore, if the date is correct, all sections of the ship have been recovered.
the question is the question of space .One interesting possibility for greatly improving the air defenses on irans large warships over the very limited currently used rim66 based system which is horribly limited both in numbers of missiles carried and number of targets that can be engaged,would be looking at the old usn sea phoenix sam system concept from the 70s.This basically used the awg9/aim54 combo with very minimal modifications in a 12 cell fixed launcher to provide short-medium-long range air defense for smaller usn vessels.The concept was tested and found to work well with 27 out of the 29 modules used in the awg9 being compatible with shipboard use and with improved computers that could fit on a ship but not an f14 it would have been possible to have a system that could engage 12 targets simultaneously and this was using 1960s-mid 70s tech.
Naturally this would require a bit of testing but even in a basic form would seem to offer big improvements over the current existing obsolescent naval sam systems plus the possibility of spin-off improvements to the awg9/aim54 on irans f14 fleet and it seems a far more easier and realistic option than trying to modify/reengineer any of irans new land based sams for naval use as this would not only require substantial reengineering of the long range+fire control radars just to make them compact enough to fit on these vessels but likely substantial modifications to the vessels superstructure as well just to get them to fit,by comparison this is a very compact system even allowing for the fitment of 3 or 4 12 cell launchers.
On the face of it it seems to be one of the best options currently available for substantially uprating the very poor current state of the self defensive capabilities of irans large warships and with the real possibility of spin offs to improve the f14s capabilities as well.
by looking at where the ship stuck for several week and how stormy weather make it rock back and forth against thesePropulsion engines and diesel generators:
If the compartments of the engine room are flooded, the engines are to be considered condemned to death;
the only alternative, the watertight compartments of at least one of the engine rooms has not suffered any damage, so the diesel inside, even if they have suffered a breakdown during navigation, having remained dry, can be repaired and reused
