A major portion of the Iranian Navy is made up of missile patrol boats and fast attack crafs (FAC). These include the Chinese Hudong, the legacy Combattante II, the North Korean Chaho, and many others. Almost all of them are described as capable of carrying the infamous CS-801 and 802s.

I would like to know what sort of air-defences and electronic countermeasures these ships employ. Do they have dedicated missile systems, manpads, or just AAA's?

Here you can find some info about the systems the iranian boats and large vessels may use:

For what I know Iran possibly has improved Standard SAMs in some of its vessels.  I don't know if they still have Harpoons - some claim they were exhausted during war with Iraq. BTW, Iranian Kilo submarines have Klub systems and SA-14 or SA-16 SAMs.
