How recent is this?

I think maybe a week+ since we know the port overhang modules have been filled with more modules that are now level with the flight deck.

Interesting the pits to work on the sonar of Type 55.

Looks like we can see the funnels right after the aft elevator and possibly the island location as well.

If we can really see the deck openings for the chimneys - I'm not sure - then more where the red arrows point. Maybe also where the blue arrows point.

With the chimneys in a rectangle, it would be a wide, short island, not a long narrow one.

Different angles, the width looks a bit strange, not sure if the photo is stretched.

Don’t think the photo has been stretched as the Chinese characters seem to be just right. The reason it looks wider than one might think is purely because of the perspective.
