Destroyer shoots down missiles in exercise

Type 052B Guangzhou (Luyang I)The Chinese-made missile destroyer DDG-169 Wuhan successfully shot down missiles during a navy exercise, the PLA Daily reported Wednesday.

The newspaper said that during the exercise in which "dozens of main warships participated," the Wuhan destroyer shot down all the incoming targets by launching its surface-to-air missiles.

The report said navy sailors shortened the reaction time of the surface-to-air missile system by 18 percent through improving the method of training.
