IRIS Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis was an Iranian missile corvette with hull number PC313-01. It was the lead ship of the Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis class of missile corvettes.

The lead ship was named after Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis who was the former deputy head of Iraq's Popular Mobilization Units, and was assassinated alongside Qasem Soleimani in the US drone strike on 3 January 2020. Like the other two classes of ships, this ship was also in service with IRGC.
