The 056 class has been quiet in the news for the first half of this year, regarding launching's and commissioning's...........but the second half of this year should see quite a few vessels join the fleet. Next vessel that should be due to join the fleet is vessel no.518 the "Yiwu", which was actually launched 2 months earlier than the "Hanzhong", which has just joined the fleet as reported.
33 active 056's..........it was only a handful of years ago we saw the first one commissioned, quite some shipbuilding program, with many more to come.

Checking through the records there is still no info on when the 33rd 056 Corvette was commissioned............can anyone confirm this????
Appear now in 04/2017 3 month ! strange
Her name Yiwu
Fortunatley for we with ofc as usualy no or almost official infos the guy do great job !
We have seen this before in the Type 052D thread that someone on social media claims that a ship is commissioned that later on appears not to be true. We have to wait for the official word on this and not rely on social media.
