韩国海军正考虑将两艘退役“虎头海雕”（Chamsuri）级巡逻艇的舷号重新分配给新一代高速舰艇，以纪念它们在黄海朝韩冲突中的贡献。国民力量党议员柳勇元于4月12日披露了这一计划。这两艘巡逻艇曾分别参加了1999年和2002年在延坪岛附近发生的海上冲突。
国民力量党议员柳勇元于4月12日表示，韩国海军正在考虑将“虎头海雕-325”和“虎头海雕-357”号的舷号赋予未来的“巡逻杀手导弹中型”（PKMR）舰艇。这些舰艇是配备了精确制导导弹的高速巡逻舰。1999年，当朝鲜巡逻艇越过作为事实上海上边界的“北方界线”（NLL）时，“虎头海雕-325”号参与了在延坪岛附近的海上交火。韩国海军表示，该艇于2022年退役，并因维护成本高昂及修复展示难度大，于今年3月被拆解。“虎头海雕-357”号则参加了2002年类似的海上冲突，于2023年退役后，目前在位于首尔以南60公里处平泽的第二舰队博物馆展出。柳勇元称，此举不仅仅是舷号的重复使用，更是一种传承胜利精神、缅怀殉职官兵的方式。

South Korean Defence Minister Ahn Gyu-back lodged a complaint immediately with the US Forces Korea commander after receiving a report of the standoff last week.

South Korean media highlight this as underscoring Seoul's growing difficulty in balancing ties with security ally the US and top trading partner China.
