The Yangwu (Chinese:, Yang-wu) was a Chinese warship and the flagship of the Fujian Fleet. The Yangwu was a wooden corvette, built in 1872 at the Foochow Navy Yard. She was part of a large shipbuilding program at the Foochow Arsenal, and cost 254,000 taels (353,000 silver dollars) for her construction. She was 1,393 tons, with a speed of 15 knots (28 km/h), and was equipped with 13 British muzzle-loaders. The Yangwu was torpedoed and sunk by Amédée Courbet's Far East Squadron during the Battle of Fuzhou, on 23 August 1884.
