... but with different engines as it seems? Or am I wrong?

by the way, according to this post and image on Weibo it appears, a dedicated EW/ECM variant (Z-8GD?) for the battlefield electronic jamming purpose similar to Russian Mi-8PPA is being developed ... Clearly visible are large antennas mounted on both sides of the mid-fuselage.

Do the latest variants of the Z-18/Z-8 still retain the water landing capabilities of the original design?. I see the boat-shaped bottom has been softened in some of the latest variants
