Jinyou-class oil tanker

The Jinyou-class oil tanker is a class of Chinese tanker ship that is in service with People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN). A total of three units were built by Japanese Kanashashi Shipyard and entered service with PLAN between 1989 – 1990. These unarmed tankers were upgraded with Chinese radars after delivery, but remain unarmed. One unit was subsequently converted to water tanker (AWT) and remains in active service in mid 2010s, but it is unclear which one of the three oilers the water tanker was converted from.
