According to information published by Khmertimeskh on July 26, 2022, the Pakistani Tughril class frigate PNS Taimur docked at Sihanoukville Autonomous Port in Cambodia for a four-day visit.

The Tughril-class frigates, formally classified as the Type 054A/P frigates, are a series of modified guided-missile frigates currently being built by Hudong–Zhonghua Shipbuilding (HDZH), for the Pakistan Navy.

The Type 054A/P is a modified derivative of the Type 054A frigate and was specifically customized to meet the operational requirements of the Pakistan Navy; the class features several capabilities - including anti-surface warfare (ASuW), anti-aircraft warfare (AAW), anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and low radar observability.

The frigates are poised to form the mainstay of the Pakistan Navy's active naval fleet. The class is also set to supplant Pakistan's obsolete Tariq-class destroyers.

They have a length of 134 m (439 ft 8 in), a beam of 16 m (52 ft 6 in), and a displacement of 4,200 tons (4100 long tons). The ships can reach a top speed of 27 knots (50 km/h; 31 mph).

As part of its anti-surface warfare (ASuW) capabilities, the class carries CM-302 anti-ship cruise missiles, reportedly capable of supersonic speeds of up to Mach 3.

Probably just a "visit" to promote the chinese built "warship". Cambodia will probably soon buy one or more of those to populate the ex-US naval base?

^ That "warship" has a healthy array of ship to ship missles out of sight. Salt water isn't really that great for them.

You mean the US- built repair shed that was demolished at the Cambodian Ream Naval Base? There has never been a US Naval Base in Cambodia.
