The first section reads like an advertisement, and needs some work. This article also needs expansion and images if an expert on the subject and proper images can be found.--JagSeal 23:53, 4 January 2007 (UTC) I agree with that. See: "the ensuing western-backed first Gulf War (Iran–Iraq War) (1980–1988)". That's a debatable opinion.Nehmo (talk) 21:59, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
A nice start. Just needs expansion, and some better organization. That first box should be moved to the right, or otherwise out of the way of the opening of the article. The Ensign of the navy should be included if you can find it. LordAmeth 11:45, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Here there says the navy has 20,600 and there are 3,000 marines that would together make 23,600 but on the military of Iran page there sais the navy has got 18,000 so which one is wrong? The Honorable Kermanshahi 14:47, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Iran Navy has 18,000 men and 2,600 aviation men (total: 20,600 men ) and 3,000 marines. [1][2] VatooVatoo 10:45, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
These sources you have put have their information from wikipedia so they are not valued. And if Iran would have had 18,000 men ,2,600 aviation men and 3,000 marines they would have been counted by csis. So better get some good sources.The Honorable Kermanshahi 19:45, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
Please read this page 26. It is wrote at December 28, 1998 and is very old so iran navy now must be sized up
There mentioned:
Category/Weapon | 1975 | 1980 | 1985 | 1990 | 1995 | 1999 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Total Naval Manpower | 15,000 | 20,000 | 20,000 | 26,500 | 38,000 | 38,600* |
Regular Manpower | 15,000 | 20,000 | 20,000 | 14,500 | 20,000 | 20,600 |
Naval Guards | 0 | 0 | 8,000? | 12,000? | 18,000 | 18,000 |
Marines | (1,000) | (1,000) | (1,000) | (1,200) | (1,200) | (5,000) |
* Does not include well over one million potential reserves in the Basiij.
There mentioned 20,600 regular manpower + 5000 marines --VatooVatoo 22:01, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
In that case I would want this to be added to Irans number of troops so with 25,600 instead of 18,000 that would than make the total amounth 545,000-18,000=527,000 527,000+25,600=552,600. It sould be changed in the text, on the iran menu template and on the list os countries by number of total and active troops. Also the total amounth of forces should be updated to 12,292,600 Instead of 12,285,000. The Honorable Kermanshahi 14:37, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes but why arn't we adding the naval guards? The Honorable Kermanshahi 14:59, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
They are now revolutionary Guards, The IRGC Navy has 20,000 men and they're not part of the regular navy and are not called Naval Guards eigther, maybe they are coastal defense or coastal patrol? or maybe they guard the ships or they're para military in wich case they have to be added to the 11,390,000. The Honorable Kermanshahi 18:02, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
For more clarify, I expand the table:
Category/Weapon | 1975 | 1980 | 1985 | 1990 | 1995 | 1999 | 2000 | 2005 | 2006 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Total Naval Manpower | 15,000 | 20,000 | 28,000 | 26,500 | 38,000 | 38,600 | 38,600 | 38,000 | 38,000 |
Regular Manpower | 14,000 | 19,000 | 19,000 | 13,300 | 15,000 | 15,600 | 15,600 | 15,400 | 15,400 |
Naval Guards | 0 | 0 | 8,000? | 12,000? | 18,000 | 18,000 | 18,000 | 20,000 | 20,000 |
Marines | 1,000 | 1,000 | 1,000 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 5,000 | 5,000 | 2,600 | 2,600 |
Do you have any idea for naval guard. because CSIS reports continue to mention it?! --VatooVatoo 19:39, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
So I was right wasn't I? And those Naval Guards might be revolutionary guard navy cause on this table their manpower is 20,000 and the revolutionary guards also have that. The Honorable Kermanshahi 07:46, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes I know, the revolutionary guard navy personel are not (normally) called Naval Guards, but what else are they? Iran doesn't have a paramilitary organisation called Naval Guards and it sounds a bit like they are revolutionary guards plus the numbers support the conclusion. The Honorable Kermanshahi 06:28, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
All the naval aviation inventory is totally wrong, somebody change the numbers of planes make them extremely big. They need to be correct.

Why add the P-3F Orion to the listing of naval aircraft? It is not and never has been, operated by Iran's navy. Before 1979, it was operated by the Imperial Iranian Air Force. Since then, it has been operated by the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force. There is no point in adding it to the list. --Dreddmoto (talk) 11:53, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
Please add content or picture of Iran's naval destroyer

So we need a rewrite that either covers both navies or excludes Iran's Gulf. Hcobb (talk) 21:05, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
The history section of this article does not need to be an entire history of the navy. Especially not of the times before the 1979 revolution. The article is about the Islamic Republic of Iran Navy (the navy since 1979). A summary of its history in that time, will be sufficient.
If people want the history in more detail, including the times before the 1979 revolution; they can go to the article titled History of the Iranian Navy.--Dreddmoto (talk) 11:49, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
This article does not contain any information about the marines and Takavaran of the IRI Navy. Will someone with such information, please add it? It could be added as a new section. Dreddmoto (talk) 13:46, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
The majority of the paragraph in the Facilities section of this article, is historical information. Apart from the last part of it mentioning Iran establishing a new base "on Oman sea" (that part needs to be rewritten in correct English), the rest of it is about Iranian naval facilities in 1977, before the Iranian revolution. Because of that, it would be better if the majority of that paragraph was moved to the History of the Iranian Navy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Iranian_Navy article.
What do others think of this? Dreddmoto (talk) 16:49, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Reading several articles about the latest ship sinking by the Iranian Navy (in this case, their own vessel, still in port) and noting that nowhere in the ship articles or in this article does it state what IRIS stands for. I presume Islamic Republic of Iran - - - Something? If this is an encyclopedia, shouldn't it define this? I'd have thought it woudl be part of the template for any naval force - to explain USS, HMS, HMCS, etc. 198.161.4.123 (talk) 13:09, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
