2 (possibly 2 more) Haijiu class submarine chasers are the modified versions of the Hainan class submarine chasers (Type 037) for the People's Liberation Army Navy. The main difference is that four ASW rocket launchers have replaced the original 2 ASW mortars. There is some disagreement over the type designation of this class, some sources claim it is Type 037I, while others claim it is Type 037 Mod (for modified or modernized).
