How do you know it's an 'A' model?

The Shape. 094 to 094A went through similar changes from 093 to 093B:



EDIT: SinoSolder has found the answer. It is an old 092 Someone kick me in my nuts.

The new construction facility to build SSN and SSBN is almost ready

It's totally massive ! Almost 2 times the size of the UK barrow on furness facility that builds the Astutes and follow on class SSBN

How big is the American Connecticut electric boat company facility anyone know ?

This Chinese facility's is 40,000 m^2

Wow what are they planning !!!!

Spotted this at CDF: Nice illustrations of the 09-series.

PS: Anyone can summarize what it says?

nice graph! Thanks. Would also enjoy a translation. Just some remarks:
1. the last 3 of Typ 091 had an additionally feature not mentioned here: they are quite a bit longer; instead of some 92m they are ~ 98m.
2. there seems to be one Typ 093A. Is it without a VLS system? What is the improvement over 093?
3. there seems to be two Typ 093B. What is the purpose of that hump just aft of the sail? VLS or docking port for some sort of underwater device?
Thanks

Not 09-series, Chinese SSNs exist also SSBNs...

Remains curious they do many variants for a limited number Soviet also do several variants for some classes but much more numerous.

Reasons for these submodels are apparently very different, though.
