Public summary
The Wochi Type 081/081A class is a modern PLAN mine-warfare vessel family for minesweeping, minehunting and route-clearance support. Mine countermeasures ships like this are important for keeping ports, amphibious approaches and coastal sea lanes usable in conflict. The class gives China a purpose-built MCM layer rather than relying only on older sweeper designs.
