The Tuzhong-class cutter (as designated by NATO)[2] is a class of oceangoing rescue and salvage ship[3][1] in the People's Republic of China's China Coast Guard (CCG).[2] Four were built at the Zhonghua Shipyard, and entered service with the People's Liberation Army Navy in the late-1970s.[1] In 2009, each of the three fleets had one and the fourth was in reserve.[4] In 2012, three were transferred to China Marine Surveillance and from there to the CCG.[3]
The Tuzhongs have a 35-ton capacity towing winch.[3][1] In PLAN service, Beituo 710[5] was fitted with a Type 352 radar, possibly for cruise missile tests.[4][1]
