The vessels are referred to as the Min Jiang-class by the media. However, the official class designation remains unknown. [1] The first vessel is designated FMLB-I, with FMLB standing for Fast Mine Laying Boat. [2] It is assumed that the other minelayers have a similar designation
The Min Jiang-class displaces 347 tons at full load, with a maximum speed of 14 knots. Length is 41m, width is 8.8m and draft is 1.7m. [1]
The vessels have a precision automatic mine laying system. In addition to its mines, the vessels are equipped with a T-75 cannon and T74 machine guns. [3] These are most likely intended to be used in the anti-aircraft role or against small boat swarms
The first vessel was launched in August 2020 at Lung Teh Shipbuilding's Yilan County Shipyard. [3]
The second vessel was delivered in September 2021, [4] and the ROCN took delivery of the third and fourth vessel in December 2021. [5]
