Camera captures destroyers Zhanjiang and Zhuhai’s last voyage

The guided-missile destroyers Zhanjiang (Hull 165) and Zhuhai (Hull 166) attached to a destroyer flotilla with the navy under the PLA Southern Theater Command berth at a naval port in late July of 2020, prior to a maritime training exercise that will be the last voyage in their 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.
