Incheon FFX Future Frigate

There’s a bit of numbering confusion somewhere. The Gangwon Ham was launched at STX Offshore & Shipbuilding’s yard in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do on 12 August 2014. Photos show the number 815 painted on the side. That’s out of sequence, and the official MND release says: “Rear Admiral Choi Yang-sun, the first deputy chief of staff for planning and management in the Navy Headquarters, named the next fourth frigate ‘Gangwon’ and assigned ‘814’ as the ship number through the denomination No.460.”
