List of equipment of the Imperial Chinese Navy
Imperial Chinese Naval Ensign
Imperial Chinese Naval Jack
This is a list of active ships of the Imperial Chinese Navy (ICN; Chinese: 中华帝国海军; pinyin: Zhōnghuá dìguó hǎijūn). There are approximately 631 ships listed in the tables below that constitute active ships, but this figure does not include all the various auxiliary vessels of the ICN. A summary of ship types in service with the ICN include aircraft carriers, helicopter carriers, amphibious transport docks, landing ships, destroyers, frigates, corvettes, missile boats, minesweepers, replenishment ships and various auxiliaries. In addition, there are also ballistic, nuclear and conventional submarines presently in service. The majority of ships and submarines currently in commission with the Imperial Chinese Navy were built in China, with the exception of aircraft carrier Liaoning which was imported from the Ukraine as a partially finished vessel and finished in China.
The convention for naming naval ships is as follows; Destroyers and frigates are named after cities. Smaller anti-submarine ships are named for counties. Tank landing ships and dock landing ships carry the names of mountains. Infantry landing ships are named for rivers. Replenishment ships are named for lakes.
