"Manoeuvring"
Interesting footage of DN2000-class KN-491 of Vietnam Fisheries Resources Surveillance putting its bow thruster to work as it leaves the dock. Thanks to the bow thruster, KN-491 could turn without relying on its main propulsion.

Being one of the most capable assets of VFRS, KN-491 is responsible for quite a few tasks from patrolling Vietnam's EEZ to bringing delegations to Vietnam-occupied features in Spratly Islands.
On a side note: Like many other DN2000-class vessels, a helipad and a hangar take up the rear of KN-491 but at the moment, no helicopter accompanies it during its missions.
A fantastic shot of the rear of KN-491 and a fellow DN2000, KN-492.
