Using Seraj as rocket launcher boat is good decision too, it has more stability than conventional design boats.


Thank you for the link. I agree about the stability of the Seraj and I hope we see larger versions of the design inj the future with more potent armament. I also wish they would place a remote 12.7mm weapons station like the ones we have seen on M-113s on these boats in the future.

In the video of the IRGC exercise when their speedboats were firing on the ex-Iraqi landing craft the majority of the rockets flew over the target and some hit short of the target. verry few rockets actually hit the target and it looked like the majority of the hits were scored by boats that stoped close to the target ship to fire. Considering the number of rockets that were fired at that ship if they could achieve a high hit probability they would  do a great deal of damage to any target ship short of actually sinking it.

I believe the idea of usin 107mm or 122mm MRLSs on speed boats is to force the enemy ships to spend all their CIWS ammunition against the huge barrage of these (cheaper) unguided rockets so the more expensive guided missiles (fired shortly after) could hit their targets unintercepted.

Cheers.
