Yang Yang

Yangyang-class minesweeper (양양급 소해함, 襄陽級掃海艦) is a ship class of minesweepers currently in service in the Republic of Korea Navy. Its main missions are gathering data of ports in the Korean region, and searching naval mine and minesweeping, in wartime. They are sometimes used for finding and recovering North Korean missiles, by using Variable Depth Sonar to detect missile fragments. Ongjin, the second ship of the class, is famous for finding the stern of ROKS Cheonan at the site of the ROKS Cheonan sinking.
