From the look of it, "research vessel" in Chinese translates to "SIGINT spy ship".

It is a satellite launch tracking ship from what I understand. If it had a more sinister role it wouldn't have had approval to berth.

Edit: Also tracks missiles according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuan_Wang-class_tracking_ship

The Boys on BC281 by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

Whilst waiting for the YM Keelung to arrive, I captured the boys rushing into the harbour ahead of her in their motorboat, BC281. It must have been a warm August day given their where being very manly shall we say ?
