Type 056 is a corvette/armed OPV of about 1/4 the displacement and size of the Type 054A. It has a helicopter platform but no hangar. It is equivalent to Kora/Khukri classes in IN.
First was put into the water overnight: pics at CDF.

there is 1 more at HD shipyard and 1 at HP, plus modules for more at HD
this ship is going to be built in very large numbers, plenty of Type 037s to replace
next version is set to be Type 056A which will have a hanger, but other than that no difference between Type 056 and Type 056A other than the role
UAVs have been tested on the Type 054A recently
well done china
Very large numbers > 50
The speed which the ship build suggest, it's going to build in large number. Remember how much they build the 022 FAC? 60 over and they completed in just few years time. I do not believe 50 056 will be build but definitely more than 24.... From the speed they are working on it. One year can produced at least 6 056.
