Prasae Frigate 412: A Memorial to the Royal Thai Navy
อนุสรณ์เรือรบหลวงประแส (Remembrance Lhuangprasae Battleship) จังหวัดระยอง
Prasae Frigate, originally called the USS. GALLUP (PE-2) INTERNATIONAL CALLSING "HSXX" RIVER CLASS, was built in California, USA, and completed on the 29th of February, 1944. The frigate is an agile battleship capable of reaching speeds of 20.3 Knots (37.6 KMH). It is also equipped with a barrage of weapons including 3 x 76mm/50 canons, 2 x 40mm/60 guns, 9 x 20mm guns, 1 Hedgehog (Anti-Submarine Projector), 8 Rocket launchers, 2 depth charge racks, and 2 torpedo tubes. As you can see, that’s quite an arsenal (and it’s not even the biggest ship out there). Prasae measures 92.8 meters in length, and required 216 sailors to man the ship. The ship is enormous, you’ve got to go there yourself to see it.
The ship has played a role in many naval missions, Thai and international. Prasae Frigate’s very first mission was during the Korean War. The frigate travelled with two other ships from the Royal Thai Navy; HTMS Sichang and HTMS Bangpakong. Their mission was to provide military assistance to South Korea and defend ships in the area. The ships were there for one year.
Most people don’t know that the Prasae Frigate at the memorial isn’t the original ship. In fact, the first frigate was decommissioned after its tour of duty. The stress of war had taken a toll on the ship. Seeing that the ship wasn’t going to last, the Royal Thai Navy purchased a second to replace the first. It wasn’t until the second frigate was decommissioned that it was bought by Rayong province and made as a memorial for visitors to tour. The reason for buying the ship was because Rayong’s Prasae beach shares the same name. _wikipedia
