The Cheng Kung-class frigates are guided-missile frigates (PFG) currently in service of the Republic of China (Taiwan) Navy (ROCN). They are based upon the U.S. Oliver Hazard Perry class and built by China Shipbuilding Corporation in Kaohsiung, Taiwan under license throughout the 1990s as parts of the Kuang Hua One patrol frigate, guided project. These frigates served as the mainstay of the ROCN's theater air defense prior to the ROCN's acquisition of Keelung (Kidd)-class destroyers in 2005.
In order to control the new weapon systems on the frigates, which the Mk 92 Fire Control System could not integrate at the time, a second Combat Direction System (CDS), the H930 Modular Combat System (MCS) was installed in order to control the 8 HF-2 (or four HF-2 and four HF-3 on certain ships) Anti-ship missile and the two Bofors 40mm/L70 guns. However, the Mk 92's Harpoon mode was deleted due to the US government refusal to sell the Harpoon missile system to Taiwan at the time. Also deleted were some of Mk 92's ASW modes, along with the refusal to sell SQR-19 Towed Array sonar system.
