PLA’s Type 055 destroyer enters Sea of Japan for 1st time
中国055型导弹驱逐舰驶入日本近海
A Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Navy flotilla led by the country’s first 10,000 ton-class Type 055 large destroyer sailed through the Tsushima Strait on Thursday and headed toward the Sea of Japan, a few days after US and Japan released “2+2” ministers’ joint statement that seriously provoked China.
据日本防卫省统幕介绍，18日上午11点前后，在长崎县对马市西南约250公里处，海上自卫队的多用途支援舰“天草”号、导弹艇“白鹰”号和P-1巡逻机发现了中国055型导弹驱逐舰等3艘舰艇。之后，这3艘舰艇从对马海峡驶入了日本海。
自卫队指出3艘中国海军舰艇没有侵入日本领海，也没有对海上自卫队机舰作出危险举动。
