Description: Illustration of the Iranian gunboat Palang (Panther) shelled by the British Royal Navy during surprise attack on Iran, August 1941, as depicted on an Iranian 1950s era postage stamp. Note: The Iranian Babr-class gunboat Palang was built at Cantiere navale di Palermo, Italy, in 1931. It is not to be confused with the former U.S. Navy Allen M. Sumner-class destroyer USS Stormes (DD-780) that was sold to Iran in 1972 and also named Palang.
