China sent first time its fleet for an "out of area" mission, at Somalian coast, a mission that could involve fighting beyond its territorial waters. This was China's first overseas naval deployment in 600 years. The Chinese naval fleet - armed with special forces, guided missiles and helicopters - set sail on Friday for anti-piracy duty off Somalia.
