Chungnam's AESA radar receives a favourable assessment alongside South Korea's work on destroyer and Aegis-related radar systems. Anti-submarine systems and missiles add to the frigate's capabilities. It also carries a Phalanx close-in weapon system. The objection concerns the relatively small 16-cell VLS magazine alongside this equipment suite. Capable sensors and several weapon types leave the criticism of limited missile depth unresolved.
