This is a nice warship, comparable to the 056s or with better ADS and AShM.

Calling these patrol boats is modest. These can carry one anti-submarine warfare helicopter.

China would call these light frigates, although they are known by a better name: corvettes.

Definitely the quality of a ship of the line. However they may have trouble for their size in the rough Atlantic seas with waves 35-40 ft in some areas. These would be fine in Baltic, Black and Caspian Sea operations.
