They claim China has a long-time weakness in anti-submarine warfare. Clearly they don't know what they are talking about. Not when all major surface combatants in the PLAN have variable depth sonar, towed array sonar, and China has a wazoo of ASW aircraft.
To add on to that, when fighting in the first island chain China will have the support of underwater infrastructure for ASW, something that western media likes to ignore when claiming that their nuclear submarines will have free rein within the first island chain.

The similarities to 901 struck me too, especially the bow and new bridge design. But I am unsure, it could be that they just use similar design approaches. Overall dimension align more or less (a little shorter than 901 but I think very similar beam).
