The Sheng-class cruiser was the first developed Jingdaoese cruiser since the start of the Xindao Program (New Path Program), which focused on a massive expansion of the Navy to counter the Shirerithian rearmament programme, that was itself a response to the ongoing Sxiro-Jingdaoese Confrontation over the loss of Kildare.
The Sheng is considered to be a departure from its predecessors in that the placement of armaments has been rationalised so that the gun-turrets no longer mutually obstruct their respective fields of fire, which had been something of a tradition hitherto in the Jingdaoese Navy.
