The Taregh (Persian: طارق) is a class of fast patrol boat used by naval forces of Iran.

[4] By February 1987, The Washington Post reported that the newly established Navy of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps began using the boats.

[3] The term boghammar, sometimes spelled boghammer, has also come to mean an improvised naval fighting vessel, typically used by a local irregular military force and usually being a modified civilian boat or other similar machine.

[6] Boghammars, in this sense, have been used by paramilitary forces to attack offshore oil platforms and civilian shipping, or even larger military vessels, most notably by Iran in the Tanker War.

[2] Other users of such vessels include Nigerian militants, LTTE Sea Tigers, and Somali pirates.
