The ship is said has a weight of 4,000+ tons. By definition it’s a destroyer. Vietnam frigates are of 2,000+ tons, corvettes 500+ tons. Different countries have different categories of warships. China, US destroyers have much more tonnage.

Vietnam only built 500 tons corvettes. It hasn't built 2000 tons class frigates before. Now Vietnam wants to build 4000 tons destroyers ? Besides tonnage, you also needs the proper tech for the engines, sensors such as ASEA and weapons systems such as VLS launcher. Can Vietnam build all such modern systems on the destroyer by itself ?

There is rumor we get tech transfer from the Russians. Without tech transfer then very difficult.
