Weighing in at 1,500 tons, this destroyer has been designed and constructed by the Defense Ministry, under the auspices of the Navy. Daylaman is recognized as the most advanced iteration of the Jamaran-class vessels. Jamaran is the lead ship of the Iranian Moudge class launched in early 2010 in Bandar-e-Abbas, Iran. Iran has stated that the design and building of Jamaran was among the greatest achievements of the Iranian Navy and the ship's launch marks a major technological leap for Iran's naval industries. More ships in its class are under construction to be added to the Iranian fleets in the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf. The ship is designed for a crew of 140. Jamaran combines anti-submarine assets with other systems of weapons capable of dealing with surface and air threats as well.

Irani also emphasized that Daylaman is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and weaponry. He pointed out that the destroyer can serve various purposes, including training naval forces and conducting rescue and relief operations.
