The sunken corvette was in service for 36 years and it was supposed to be in service until 40 years.

Since everything on the ship was still functioning normally, the plan was to extend the service period of the ship by another 5-10 years before it sank, Adm Choengchai said.
The ship also ship received major maintenance works over the past 2-3 years in preparation for operation in the Andaman Sea.

The night that it sank, Dec 18, it was patrolling off Prachuap Khiri Khan when it was pounded by a series of high waves, up to 3-4 meters due to monsoon.
