Newly-Commissioned Chinese Frigate Takes Part in First Exercise
The Chinese Navy’s newly-inducted Type 054A frigate Ziyang recently conducted training exercise featuring live-firing of its main gun and anti-submarine depth charges.
The Ziyang is affiliated with the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Eastern Theater Command Navy.
Foreign media reports in 2021 suggested that China had at that time started to build another batch of Type 054A frigates for the PLA Navy, as the PLA Navy had reportedly transferred a batch of smaller Type 056 corvettes to the China Coast Guard.
Type 054A frigate has a displacement of about 4,000 tons and is capable of conducting anti-air, anti-ship and anti-submarine operations.
