Both 170 and 174 were in the Indian Ocean doing anti-pirate drill.
The Indian Ocean is the smallest ocean but still big. So where were they?

LOL delft the smallest is the Arctic Ocean
I've never seen the Arctic Sea as an ocean. But that might be because at school I learned about Willem Barentsz, the name of whose father became the name of part of the sea. Nowadays with the shrinking of the ice it gets much more the aspect of an ocean.

tough sell, delft
quickly according to wiki:
- Arctic 14,056,000 km2
- Southern 20 330 000 km²
- Indian 73 560 000 km²
- Atlantic 76 760 000 km²
- Pacific 165 200 000 km²
I left school more than half century ago when the Arctic and Antarctic seas were considered to be too small to be called oceans.
I don't think this has been posted yet... the second and third 052Ds from Dalian under construction (left and right respectively). Together, this makes 11 052Ds overall positively IDed from both JN and DL.
I suspect JN's 9th 052D (or 052D number 12 overall) is also under advanced stages of assembly at JN under the cover of the assembly hall, and will probably see it visible in coming months.
DL D2 will almost definitely be launched this year, and JN D9 will be launched this year too.
DL D3 will in turn probably be launched mid next year, at the latest. From the launch of 052D number 1 in August 2012 to 052D number 12 sometime in 2017, that would have taken five years to launch twelve ships... not bad timing at all. Not as fast as the USN launched Burkes in the early 90s, when five Burkes were launched in 1994, but still pretty fast overall.
