The Type 056 corvette (NATO reporting name: Jiangdao-class light frigate) is a class of littoral combat-oriented corvette deployed by the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN). The first ship entered service in March 2013. Later ships were completed with a towed array sonar; these are commonly designated as the Type 056A and entered service in November 2014. The last ship commissioned in February 2021. All of the 22 Type 056s were transferred to the China Coast Guard after removing missiles and torpedoes between mid 2021 and January 2023, with the PLAN retaining 50 Type 056A. Variants were produced for export too.
