| 1963 | Jane's Fighting Ships lists a transport named NAN HU (ex TAIHUI, ex STEELMOTOR) as discarded in 1963. There is no information explaining how she got from Ming Sung, a private Chinese company whose owners remained on the mainland in 1949 and put their company in Communist hands, transferring this vessel to the Republic of China Navy in Taiwan. |
