Algeria has ordered one Chinese-made Pattani or Type 056 class corvette

The Patani is a class of corvette/OPV (Offshore Patrol Vessel) built by the China State Shipbuilding Corporation. Two ships of this class are already in service with the Royal Thai Navy that were commissioned in 2005.

In 20115/2016 China has delivered three c-28A frigates to Algeria. The three corvettes are fitted with a mix of Chinese and Western systems. The hull-mounted sonar will be of Chinese origin, but Algeria has selected Thales Smart-S Mk2 3D air and surface surveillance radar and Kelvin Hughes for the navigation radar. In recent years, Algeria has purchased a large amount of military equipment from China including SR-5 Multiple Rocket Launch Systems, armed drones CH-3 and CH-4, SM-4 120mm mortar carrier, and Red Arrow-12 anti-tank missiles.

The Type 056 (NATO codename: Jiangdao) is a class of corvette that entered service with the People's Liberation Army Navy in 2012 as a replacement for the Type 037 series of patrol vessels. The ship uses a low radar cross-section hull design providing stealth technology. The anti-submarine warfare (ASW) variant, commonly known as Type 056A, has also entered service with the Chinese Navy.

Type 056 has a length of 90 m, a beam of 11.14 m, a draught of 4 m, and a displacement of 1,500 tons. She is powered by 2 SEMT Pielstick PA6-STC diesel motors. The ship can reach a top speed of 25 knots (46 km/h) with a maximum cruising range of 3,500 nautical miles at 16 knots (30 km/h). She is a crew of 78 sailors.

Type 056 is armed with one AK-176 76 mm naval gun, two 30 mm automatic cannons, 2 x 2-cell YJ-83 anti-ship missiles, amidships, one 8-cell FL-3000N SAM surface-to-air missile launcher, and triple 324 mm torpedo tubes.

What we know about the accident with an Israeli submarine


Rather unprecedented information was shared yesterday on social networks, an Israeli submarine was allegedly chased by the Algerian navy during the Radaa 2021 exercise which took place on September 29 and 30. The exercise, which saw the participation of many Algerian military vessels, aimed to demonstrate the capabilities of deep attack, or stealth destruction of targets at sea at very long distances. Radaa 2021 took place under the eyes of the Chief of Staff Corp. Gen. Saïd Chengriha, the Commander of the Naval Forces and the Head of the Second Military Region.


It was during the preparation for the exercise on September 27 that an incident took place. An Israeli Dolphin-class submarine, was spotted by passive means, then tracked down and forced to surface in international waters and leave the area.

The Dolphin was detected by acoustic means of an Algerian Kilo submarine. Quickly the decision was made to hunt him down aggressively without the use of sonar. The training BDSL Kalaat Beni Abbas (as command ship) played a central role in the operation by deploying two Superlynx anti-submarine warfare helicopters. The two aircraft with their optical means and magnetic anomaly detectors continued the fight as two Kilo 636 submarines pushed the intruder north.

As for the intruder's motives, they must have been intelligence and technical information gathering, especially since at least one Algerian submarine was expected to fire one or more Kalibr missiles. The Dolphin would in this case have obtained the precious acoustic signature indicating the opening of missile strokes and recording the sound of the fire preparation and fire preparation routine. Valuable information that can help predict the actions taken by Algerian crews in the event of a conflict. The fact that the exercise is complex and that it involves many ships, was also an opportunity to do electronic intelligence and collect data on the Algerian navy's transmissions and their encryption.
