055 from the air...

It is simply a very modest way of highlighting China's shipbuilding speed. Few navies can compete with that kind of speed.so what?
I assume the aerial photo was taken from quite a while ago of hull 1 and 2, because JN has only launched two 055s so far.
The original poster didn't say if the photo is new. I somehow have a hunch that it is. Maybe 101 came back to the yard for a final bit of work. Do we have confirmation that 101 has been officially commissioned?
It's certainly possible that it is 101 back for some final work, but I would've been under the impression that once it received its pennant number it would've been commissioned, and any additional "work" to be done would be related to actual naval crew learning to run the ship.
The other shore...
