If only images are close enough and sharp enough...

Hard to say what that is.

As a caveat this particular sub may not be the same as the smooth hump above. It might also have a dotted line sink hole pattern, which is also different from the other sub.

Why do you think this is a Type 095/096 ... this is the Type 095/096 thread??

Its not. Someone posted the 093 above, and this is all likelihood another 093 variant.

Maybe you can relocate said posts to the 093/094 thread.

That's the Type 093 alright, small hump version.
Wonder it's safe we can assume 3rd and 4th photo reveal the interior (COC) of 093 (small hump), in addition to last time when Xi visited Long March 15 and 16.

And, I will appreciate if someone can shed some light about the emergency capsule (the one in red cap?) has been popular for most PLAN submarines. As far as I can see, all 093 and 094 had it, but NOT every 039B/C. Of course, I could be wrong judging only from layout.

So for SSBN

4 x Type 094 SSBN
1 x Type 092 SSBN

For SSN

5 x Type 093
3 x Type 091

To be fair these are sporadic units

The new base should streamline the production for Type 96 and Type 095 in high numbers
