Due to inclement weather in the [[Bay of Bengal]], six fishing trawlers of Bangladesh with 90 fishermen entered into Indian waters with their boats damaged. On 21 August 2016, BNS ''Shadhinota'' with her sister ship [[BNS Prottoy|BNS ''Prottoy'']] were sent to rescue them.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://newagebd.net/247594/two-naval-ships-sent-bring-back-90-fishermen-indian-coast/|title=Two naval ships sent to bring back 90 fishermen from Indian coast |work=New Age| date=22 August 2016|accessdate=15 September 2016}}</ref>

On her way back, she visited the [[Phuket City|Phuket]] port of [[Thailand]].

Shadhinota participated in ''International Maritime Defence Exhibition (IMDEX) Asia 2019'', held at Singapore. She left Chattogram for Singapore on 5 May 2019. On her way, she will make goodwill visits to the [[Port Klang]] of Malaysia and [[Phuket|Phuket Port]] of Thailan.

BNS Shadhinota took part in Coordinated Patrol (CORPAT-2019) exercise with the [[India Navy]] along the Bangladesh-India maritime border from 10 to 12 October 2019. The ship reached [[Visakhapatnam Port]] of India as a part of exercise on 12 October 2019. She came back home on 18 October 2019.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.ispr.gov.bd/%e0%a6%a6%e0%a7%8d%e0%a6%ac%e0%a6%bf%e0%a6%a4%e0%a7%80%e0%a7%9f%e0%a6%ac%e0%a6%be%e0%a6%b0%e0%a7%87%e0%a6%b0-%e0%a6%ae%e0%a6%a4%e0%a7%8b-%e0%a6%ac%e0%a6%99%e0%a7%8d%e0%a6%97%e0%a7%8b%e0%a6%aa%e0%a6%b8/| title=দ্বিতীয়বারের মতো বঙ্গোপসাগরে অনুষ্ঠিত হতে যাচ্ছে বাংলাদেশ ও ভারতীয় নৌবাহিনীর যৌথ টহল-CORPAT| publisher=[[Inter-Services Public Relations (Bangladesh)|ISPR]]| date=9 October 2019| accessdate=16 October 2019}}</ref>

The ship left for [[Qatar]] on 28 February 2020 to take part in 7th ''Doha International Maritime Exhibition and Conference (DIMDEX-2020)'', was supposed to be held from 16 to 18 March 2020.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.ispr.gov.bd/en/%e0%a6%95%e0%a6%be%e0%a6%a4%e0%a6%be%e0%a6%b0%e0%a7%87-%e0%a6%85%e0%a6%a8%e0%a7%81%e0%a6%b7%e0%a7%8d%e0%a6%a0%e0%a6%bf%e0%a6%a4%e0%a6%ac%e0%a7%8d%e0%a6%af-%e0%a6%86%e0%a6%a8%e0%a7%8d%e0%a6%a4-2/| title=কাতারে অনুষ্ঠিতব্য আন্তর্জাতিক সমুদ্র মহড়ায় অংশ নিতে নৌবাহিনীর যুদ্ধজাহাজ স্বাধীনতা এর চট্টগ্রাম ত্যাগ| publisher=ISPR| date=28 February 2020| accessdate=29 February 2020}}</ref> But later on, due to the outbreak of [[Coronavirus disease 2019|COVID-19 pandemic]], the exhibition was cancelled.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.gulf-times.com/story/657479/Defence-exhibition-DIMDEX-2020-cancelled| title=Defence exhibition DIMDEX 2020 cancelled| publisher=The Gulf Times| date=3 March 2020| accessdate=5 March 2020}}</ref>

==Design==

The ship is {{convert|90.1|m}} long, has a beam of {{convert|11.14|m}} and a draught of {{convert|43.437|m}}. With a [[Displacement (ship)|displacement]] of 1,300 tonnes, she has a [[Ship's company|complement]] of 78 personnel including 60 sailors and 18 officers. She is propelled by two [[SEMT Pielstick |SEMT Pielstick 12PA6]] diesel engines with a distance adjustable tail rotor which can provide enough power for her top speed of more than {{convert|25|kn}}. She has two power stations, forward and rear, and electricity supply works with one of the power station sunk. Compared to the traditional round bilge boat, the ship is designed with V type, having angle bending line at the bottom so that she can sail with high speed in rough sea states. However, the ship does not carry any type of sonar so she has limited [[anti-submarine warfare]] capability. As a result, she will act mainly as a surface warfare corvette. BNS ''Shadhinota'' has a helicopter deck aft which can support a medium-size helicopter, but she has no hangar.

===Electronics===

The ship uses SharpEye I-Band (X-band) and E/F-band (S-band) radars from [[Kelvin Hughes]] with MantaDigital tactical display software.<ref>{{cite web| |url=https://www.kelvinhughes.com/news/109-multiple-wins-in-asia |title=Multiple Wins in Asia |publisher=kelvinhughes.com |accessdate=19 December 2015 |archive-date=22 December 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151222105256/https://www.kelvinhughes.com/news/109-multiple-wins-in-asia |url-status=dead }}</ref> These radars are used for surface search and navigation purposes and can be used for helicopter control and recovery also. A low peak transmission power of these radars reduces the probability of intercept by ESM systems.

===Armaments===

The ship carries one [[AK-176#H.2FPJ-26|H/PJ-26]] 76&nbsp;mm main gun placed forward. Two 2-cell [[C-802]]A [[Anti-ship missile]]s are installed in the ship for anti surface operations. Two ''H/PJ-17'' 30&nbsp;mm [[Remote weapon station|remote controlled]] [[gun turret]]s at amidship work as gun-[[Close-in weapon system|CIWS]] for the ship. For [[Anti-aircraft warfare|air defence]], she carries an eight-cell [[TY-90#FL-3000N|FL-3000N]] launcher, which is the Chinese equivalent of [[RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile|RAM]]. The ship also carries two 6-cell Type-87 240mm ASW rocket launchers.
