This is a list of active or commissioned Chinese Navy vessels.

The Chinese navy currently operates approximately 139 major combat vessels, consisting of 79 major surface combatants (1 aircraft carrier, 3 assault ships, 27 destroyers & 48 frigates), at least 9 nuclear submarines and 51 conventional submarines. All ships and submarines currently in commission with the Chinese Navy were built in China, with the exception of 4 Sovremenny class destroyers and 12 Kilo class submarines which were imported from Russia, and the Admiral Kuznetsov class aircraft carrier Liaoning (ex-Varyag) which was 70% complete when it was bought from the Ukraine.

As of 2008, english-language official chinese state media no longer uses the term "People's Liberation Army Navy", instead the term "Chinese Navy" along with the usage of the prefix "CNS" for "Chinese Navy Ship" is now employed.^[1]
