This are photos of one of their recent deployments. IIRC this was a joint patrol with a Russian Udaloy class DDG late last year.
Recently the PRC has displayed a Z-8 with a ventral cannon pod.
The Z-8 is a Chinese copy of the French Aerospatiale Super Frelon and is designed for shipborne ASW and SAR missions. |
Copy or homemade? I look into Janes Group and find nothing spec....
