Guangzhou Huangpu Shipyard is the Guangzhou naval-shipbuilding lineage now folded into CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding, a China State Shipbuilding Corporation yard group on the Pearl River. Public shipyard and defense references describe the organization as a South China production base for naval vessels, special engineering ships, offshore-support vessels, dredgers, feeder container ships, and public-service ships.
2 weaponsThe Guangzhou Huangpu yard is best understood through the later Huangpu Wenchong structure. GlobalSecurity describes CSSC Huangpu Wenchong as a CSSC enterprise composed of the original Guangzhou CSSC Huangpu Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. and Guangzhou Wenchong Shipyard Co., Ltd.; China Services Info describes the combined enterprise as a major production base for navy vessels, special engineering ships, and offshore engineering projects in South China.
The yard's defense relevance comes from surface-combatant and amphibious-craft construction rather than from a single export product line. Open naval references connect the Guangzhou Huangpu/Huangpu yard name to Type 053H3 Jiangwei II frigates, while National Maritime Foundation reporting places Chinese-assembled Zubr/Type 958 hovercraft work at Huangpu Shipyard in Guangzhou after China's 2009 Ukrainian hovercraft contract.

English-language sources use overlapping Guangzhou yard names, including Guangzhou Huangpu Shipyard, Huangpu Shipyard, Guangzhou CSSC Huangpu Shipbuilding, and the later CSSC Huangpu Wenchong organization formed with Wenchong Shipyard. Broader Huangpu names can refer to the same Guangzhou yard lineage or to the later combined yard group, so production attributions should be checked against each source's wording.
