Oriented object detection in remote sensing images has made great progress in recent years. However, most of the current methods only focus on detecting targets, and cannot distinguish fine-grained objects well in complex scenes. In this technical report, we analyzed the key issues of fine-grained object recognition, and use an oriented feature alignment network (OFA-Net) to achieve high-performance fine-grained oriented object recognition in optical remote sensing images. OFA-Net achieves accurate object localization through a rotated bounding boxes refinement module. On this basis, the boundary-constrained rotation feature alignment module is applied to achieve local feature extraction, which is beneficial to fine-grained object classification. The single model of our method achieved mAP of 46.51\% in the GaoFen competition and won 3rd place in the ISPRS benchmark with the mAP of 43.73\%.
