Camera captures destroyers Zhanjiang and Zhuhai’s last voyage

The guided-missile destroyer Zhanjiang (Hull 165) attached to a destroyer flotilla with the navy under the PLA Southern Theater Command sets sail from a naval port for a maritime training exercise in late July, taking the last voyage in its service period. On August 28, this naval flotilla held a decommissioning ceremony for the two destroyers, which had served in the PLA Navy for nearly 30 years. The ceremony marked the retirement of all the Type-051 destroyers, as the first-generation guided-missile destroyers independently developed and built by China, from active service.
