Is it just me, or do the elevators seem to be slightly different in shape?

Specifically, the "inboard" edge is now sort of like an "X" instead of being a plain old square/rectangle on Liaoning and Kuznetsov

or it could be the shadow of the white object at the lower right corner of the aft elevator?

Both elevators seem to be the same distinct shape, however.

More large for a better look, confirmed same size both as Kuznetsov ( 305 x 33,5 -72 x 10,5 m ) class ?

Also differences in the aft sponsons. Allowing for a little more room on each side for spotting. not much...but some.

Looks great, and when it happens, China will have the second best navy in the Indo-Pacific.

Surely they are not going to make a 052D do ASW when there are so many 054As available to do it.

Very nice!

Request to the Artist/Author: Replace the 093 with 2x 093B and maybe 1x 094A and I think the 055 have to be bigger. From those angles the 055 it is only slightly larger than the 052D.

Why would you want a Type 094 with the CSG?
