Earlier this month, the destroyer Dongguan set sail from a naval base in the Eastern Combat Command and sailed to a designated area of the East China Sea to conduct exercises covering a range of disciplines, including surface attack, air defense, anti-submarine warfare, and maritime supply. This marks the Dongguan's first combat-style exercise since its commissioning.
The Type 055 destroyer is a fourth-generation ship designed and built in China. It serves as a guard ship for carrier battle groups and the core of long-range naval operations. Recently, the Type 055 destroyer family was expanded with two new ships: the ninth, Dongguan, and the tenth, Anqing. From the first, Nanchang, hull number 101, to the current Anqing, hull number 110, operating in the East China Sea, in just a few years, this family has grown to a double-digit number of ships, covering all three war zones.
