}} | The Type 072II landing ship (NATO designation Yuting-class) are large landing ships built by Shanghai-based Hudong-Zhonghua Shipyard as a successor to the Type 072 landing ship.[1] A total of four hulls have been delivered to the PLA Navy since the early 1990s. The Type 072-II is the PLA Navy’s first amphibious warfare ship to have a flight deck for helicopter take-off/landing. There are four ships currently in People's Liberation Army service, three of which are deployed in South Sea Fleet of the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN SSF) at Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province, while the remaining one is deployed in East Sea Fleet of PLAN (PLAN ESF). All active ships are built by China Shipbuilding Shipyard (中华造船厂) in Shanghai.
