text: # Fubai-class tanker
  
  Fubai class tanker is a class of naval auxiliary ship currently in service with the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN),
  
  and has received NATO reporting name Fubai class. The exact type designation remains unknown, and a total of four of this class have been confirmed in active service as of early-2020s.
  
  Fubai class ships in PLAN service are designated by a combination of two Chinese characters followed by a three-digit number. The second Chinese character is You (油), meaning oil in Chinese, because these ships are classified as oil tankers. The first Chinese character denotes which fleet the ship is service with, with East (Dong, 东) for East Sea Fleet, North (Bei, 北) for North Sea Fleet, and South (Nan, 南) for South Sea Fleet. However, the pennant numbers are subject to change due to the change of Chinese naval ships naming convention, or when units are transferred to different fleets. Specification:
