Anyone see a port side shot of a pair of 056s from HSH where a RHIB is shown loaded on front ship with panel opened and the aft open ports appear to now have a fence like enclosing?
Looks like they did not modify the actual exhaust pipe as they still aim out back rather than upwards, even after adding more panels to cover the stack making it look stealthier.
What about simply keeping one on landing pad if the mission requires one? I don't see these ships deploying for any extended periods of time nor extremely far from land.
