Chinese infantry fighting vehicles

General
A bigger version. It looks to be an evolved Type 05. Beyond the obvious new turret and gun (appears to have partially faceted barrel?), the spacing of the road wheels are different. The hull just behind the extendable bow appears different, as is the transom flap.

This might have something to do with the new/improved amphibious IFV. A paper on mathematical modeling for predicting the performance and seakeeping ability of a certain amphibious IFV in various sea conditions. The paper states the top speed of the vehicle has been tested at 41.6 km/h.

Seems to go all in on hard-kill APS. on a similar western design you'd have these fancy angled blocks of composite or NERA, which makes it a lot heavier. hard-kill APS is most useful on very light vehicles since there is no other meaningful option for protection.

What caliber does this new/improved amphibious IFV with hull number 003
have? Also there is possibly no atgm
on that vehicle.
