The thing is there never been an 'official' tonnage of 054A from PLAN. We only think the tonnage of 054A is about 4500t by comparing with 054.

some thing interesting that is chinese official magazine < Naval & Merchant Ship > -舰船知识( 中国造船工程学会主办 ),gave the information about 054 displacement is 39,000t in full load, and Jane's < War Ship> also use the same information in the same time,the book published 054 displacement is 39,000t in full load.they are both adopting the same chinese official source.so, if 054 and 054A use the same propulsion four SEMT Pielstick (now MAN Diesel SA) 16 PA6V-280 STC diesel engines,054A displacement only 4,2000t in full load.
but in Sinodefence.com the information for 054/054A displacement is 4,2000t and 45,000t in full.

Some rumors, implying a fifth and a sixth vessel in Hudong (did not count the possible construction in Huangpu).

568 has been named, I guess this is its official commissioning?

this is what's going on in HP shipyard right now, does this look like 054A? I'm not too sure.

I'm no expert but the lines leading to the bow of that ship are different from a 54A. It looks more similar to the 52Bs and Cs but I have no idea what the wedge cut at the tip of the bow is all about.

I agree with assasins' observation. Here is a picture for comparison. The shape of the bow to the superstructure is more indicative of the 052B/C class.

That's great news. For the 052D, they need to have a VLS like the 054A's. The 054A's can actually fit more cells than the 32 it has. So the larger 052D should have at least 64 and up to 96. As crobato mentioned here in SDF, they should also abandon the superstructure PAR panels for a top of the mast PAR like the Daring class. And they definitely need helicopters. Helicopters are a big weakness of the Chinese military in general.

^ With that many missiles it would take up enormous space. Perhaps PLAN should develop something that's effective and efficient as the MK-41 VLS...

Beam looks far too wide for a 054A, and it looks like it stretches quite a ways back there in the third picture. I may well be wrong, but that looks like a larger vessel and does not have the right lines for a 054A.

Aren't superstructure PARs more powerful than mast mounted PARs, by virtue of their larger sizes? I imagine that the PLAN would want to stick to the superstructure arrangement to deal with enemy aviation (I'm thinking of the ROCAF and the USN carrier wings in particular).
