Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) is building a massive new ship near the navel base at Bandar Abbas.
The refit is being done at the same yard where the regular Iranian Navy's own forward base ship, I.R.I.N.S. Makran (441), was converted. At 240 meters long the new IRGC ship appears to be similar lenght but slightly smaller overall than the Makran, which was a tanker. But it will be by far the largest ship in IRGC service.
