Deutsch: Die Cheonan (PCC-772) war eine Korvette der Pohang-Klasse. Sie wurde 1989 bei der Südkoreanischen Marine in Dienst gestellt. Die Aufgabe des Schiffes bestand in der Küstenverteidigung mit Fokus auf U-Jagd, aber auch gegen Flugzeuge und Schiffe.

English: ROKS Cheonan (PCC-772) was a South Korean Pohang-class corvette of the Republic of Korea Navy (ROKN), commissioned in 1989. On 26 March 2010, it broke in two and sank near the sea border with North Korea. An investigation conducted by an international team of experts from South Korea, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and Sweden concluded that Cheonan was sunk by a torpedo launched by a North Korean Yeono class miniature submarine.
