The ship I couldn't identify in the last post (2nd one) is the ROKS Gyeonggi - South Korea Navy Incheon-class frigate.

Thanks for the news, glad to see that Australia is represented! Still, it's an odd choice of ship. HMAS Melbourne is the oldest surface combatant in the fleet and due to retire shortly.

Not to give away too much of the Australian navy’s capability, they have send their oldest surface combatant.

Well the PLAN sent the 113 Qingdao to Royal Australian Navy centenary back in 2013. So I guess the Aussies are just returning the favour on similar grounds.

Any ships from Europe
