Captain found tenders for two more 075!!!

Wasn't the original estimate around 8 075 total? Combined with 076 in the future there could be multiple heavy brigades deployed at once.

Small detail, it could be just the resolution/viewing angle, but it seems that they have rounded the corners a bit on no. 34 compared to previous hulls, which have very sharp angles -



Placement of the sponson on the port bow is also moved back a touch, or maybe even a slightly lengthened bow?


EDIT: The jettison ramps are also placed slightly differently -

Does anyone know if Type 75 Hubei is active ? Hull number 34

I think its just a combination of the viewing angle and the lighting softening the shadows, making it look less sharp.
