From Henri Kenhmann at East Pendulum on 2020-08-29:

Two of the last old Type 051 destroyers built in the 1990s - 165 Zhenjiang and 166 Zhuhai - were withdrawn from service (decommissioned) on Friday (2020-08-28). They will be transformed into a floating museum.

The hull number 165 will be taken over by a new Type 052D class destroyer.
