Note the launching rails for flare rockets fitted to the side of the mounting. The guns are controlled by the close range blind fire director sited just forward of the 4 inch mounting. a squid anti submarine mortar is fitted aft and is a distinguishing feature of this vessel, the remainder of the class having the longer barrelled limbo. A type 277 height finding radar is fitted just above the bridge. Type 293q air surface search and type 974 navigation radars are fitted to the foremast.
