According to some sources the missile was first displayed as a model in an exhibition by students of the Imam Khomeini Naval University of Noshahr in September 2012.

[4][5] On 25 February 2019, the Iranians successfully tested the missile as part of the Velayat 97 maneuvers and released a footage of the missile being fired from a Ghadir-class submarine,[2][3][4] Iran also modified the Fateh-class submarines so that they can also launch cruise missiles.

[2][3] with its own marine propulsion which allows it to swim out of a submarine's torpedo tube in a way conventional missiles can not, the missile's light weight, size and negative buoyancy allows it to do so making the missile somewhat unique as compared to other submarine launched cruise missiles.
