Jiangxin Shipbuilding Factory refers to the Jiangxi-based Jiangxin shipyard lineage now operating publicly as Jiangxi Jiangxin Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. Open defense references connect the yard to Chinese naval mine-countermeasure production, especially the Type 082 Wosao-class minesweeper family, while current company and shipbuilding-sector sources describe a medium-size ship repair and construction enterprise in Hukou, Jiujiang, with commercial, public-service, and military-vessel capacity.
1 weaponsThe Jiangxin yard sits outside China's best-known coastal naval-shipbuilding centers, but public sources give it a specific role in mine-warfare craft. GlobalSecurity says the Type 082 program moved from design completion in 1984 to construction by Jiangxin Shipyard, with delivery to the navy in 1987 and active service beginning in 1988. Deagel separately lists Jiangxin Shipbuilding Factory and Qiuxin Shipyard as production yards for about 16 to 20 Type 082-series minesweepers between the 1980s and 2000s.
Modern corporate reporting describes the company as Jiangxi Jiangxin Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., formerly Tongfang Jiangxin Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. iMarine reported that the company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Jiangxi Provincial Military Industry Holding Group in 2023 after Tongfang's stake was transferred, and that the yard has multiple production lines for steel and aluminum vessels below 20,000 tons. Its public-facing business now includes commercial ships, dredgers, tankers, roll-on/roll-off ships, offshore support vessels, workboats, and government or emergency-response craft, alongside the military-vessel heritage reflected in Type 082 references.
GlobalSecurity reports that Type 082 construction started at Jiangxin Shipyard after the design was completed in 1984, and that the yard delivered the minesweeper to the navy in 1987 before the first ship entered active service in 1988.
