Yes.......thanks 'CIRR'..................i've noticed a trend lately where people assume once a vessel has a pennant number on, then that means it has been commissioned into the Chinese fleet, but it doesn't...................but to me i only accept it officially, when the Chinese themselves report the event, and show a picture, with the commissioning ceremony (just as you have done here).
Which is why i also believe the 19th and 20th 054A Frigates, though completed, havnt yet been officially inducted into the Chinese fleet.............unless, anyone here can show me news to the contrary. :-)

Anyway, its good news..........and the '173' looks in fine shape...........look forward to seeing further 052D's join the fleet!
