What about names?

Have the Chinese named a warship the "Walmart" yet?

The new frigates are the Ma'anshan class and each will be individually named. Carrier has no official name yet, the LPD has no official name yet. The purchased Russian destroyers are the Hangzhou class and each is individually named. Names are given for the replinishment class.

The other destroyers and major ships are also named.

The FACs, to my knowledge have not been named and are only numbered to this point.

As to Walmart...well, the point is well taken, among other trade activities, our dollars are funding this buildup in a large way.
