Summary

Machine summary

Military expert Zhang Junshe, in comments to Xinhua on the China-Russia 'Joint Sea-2026' exercise, highlighted the Type 055 destroyer Anshan as a first-time participant in the 'Joint Sea' series, describing the class as China's fourth-generation indigenously developed missile destroyer with capabilities in 信息感知 (information sensing), air defense and anti-missile, and surface and land-strike operations. The article documents the PLA Navy's decision to deploy a Type 055 hull to a bilateral exercise where previous iterations used less capable surface combatants, extending the pattern of progressively higher-end platforms appearing in the 'Joint Sea' series. What remains unknown is the full Chinese order of battle for the exercise and whether the Anshan's inclusion reflects a one-time showcase or a shift in how Beijing equips its contribution to this format.
