USS Mustin was laid down and launched in 2001, entering service two years later. She belongs to the Flight IIA, though several modifications were done during her carreer. This includes the addition of a Phalax CIWS aft off the funnels. Like most modern units this ship has not seen active combat since her maiden deployment in 2005. Though the ship completed several cruises with carriers and other nations, the main tasks so far were surveillance and aiding countries during natural disasters. In 2021 Mustin showed US presence in the South China sea by maneuvering between the Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning and her escorts. This happening caused several outcries, though it sparked no international incident.
