The Sasanian War Fleet: Myth or Reality? by Vladimir A. Dmitriev (Farsi)

This scholarly work delves into the often-overlooked naval capabilities of the Sasanians, challenging the traditional view of them as solely a land-based power. Drawing from a range of historical sources, Dmitriev examines the organization, operations, and strategic significance of the Sasanian navy in regions such as the Persian Gulf, Arabian Sea, and Red Sea. The book sheds light on naval engagements during key campaigns, including the conquest of Yemen and confrontations with the Byzantine Empire. Essential reading for enthusiasts of ancient military history and maritime warfare, this study offers a comprehensive analysis of a pivotal yet underrepresented aspect of Sasanian military prowess.
