As early as the 1970s, China has purchased French navalized SA321 Super Frelon helicopters. The Chinese Navy has used the Super Frelon for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Search and Rescue (SAR) operations. These were the first helicopters in Chinese inventory capable of operating from a warships' flight deck.
