The JIN Yantao is a Xining-class destroyer in the Yuaneze People's Liberation Army Navy. On May 25th 2023, the Yantao, JAI Puhan, and JAI Guilin entered Titania Bay and were intercepted by the Zamastanian Navy and Drambenburgian Navy. The SMS Lange sank the Puhan, while the ZMS Elmhill sank the Guilin. The ZMS Amaury crippled the Yantao, which surrendered and was towed to port in Aurelia, where the crew was detained and held for two months before they were released in a prisoner exchange. The Yantao remains in Zamastanian custody.
