The Chinese have a tube launched version of the C-802 (YJ-82) for their submarines. Photos of it came to light last November.

But I have seen nothing that says Iran has this weapon, even if they did its max range would be far beyond a 877 boat's tracking abilities. Remember the MGK-400 sonar on their boats is a very basic system, it doesn't even have LOFAR narrowband classification capabilities (all it has for that is some form of DEMON).
