Jinan (105) is a Type 051 destroyer of the People's Liberation Army Navy.

Development and design

[edit]

The PLAN began designing a warship armed with guided missiles in 1960 based on the Soviet Neustrashimy, with features from the Kotlin-class destroyer, but the Sino-Soviet split stopped work. Work resumed in 1965[1] with nine ships being ordered.[2][1]

Construction and career

[edit]

Jinan was launched on 30 July 1970 at the Luda Shipyard in Shanghai. Commissioned on 31 December 1971.

She was decommissioned on 15 November 2007 and currently she sits at Qingdao Naval Museum, Qingdao as a museum ship.[3][4]
