The Anshan-class destroyers were the People's Liberation Army Navy's (PLAN) first destroyers. They were ex-Soviet Gnevny-class destroyers purchased in the 1950s.

After 1949 the PLAN negotiated with Britain through Hong Kong to buy some second-hand ships and boats but was unable to do so due to the Korean War. As a result, the PLAN turned to the USSR to buy four worn-out destroyers with 17 tons of gold.

The Anshan-class ships were withdrawn from active service by the 1990s. Tai Yuan #104 was retained as a training ship; An Shan #101 and Chang Chun #103, as museum ships. The PLAN retains ownership through PLAN funded institutions.
