ROCS Kee Lung (基隆; DDG-1801) is the lead ship of her class of guided-missile destroyers currently in active service of Republic of China Navy.
Kee Lung was formerly the American Kidd-class destroyer USS Scott (DDG-995), which was decommissioned by the United States Navy in 1998.
Ironically, the USS Kidd (DDG-993), which was the original lead ship of the class, was also sold to the Republic of China Navy in 2006 and was renamed ROCS Tso Ying (DDG-1803).
For a period of time Kee Lung was tentatively named Chi Teh (紀德), a transliteration of Kidd into Chinese.
This enables Kee Lung to carry up to two of the more capable Sikorsky S-70(M)-1/2 Seahawk helicopters for anti-submarine warfare, compared to her sister ships.
