Indeed, that's my question ... what orientation has this part, is it only one or eve three????

There's only one block in the photo with its long side towards you.

I'll get my well-known cross-sectional drawing through a generic supercarrier. Maybe we see a typical overhang (red circle). But what I miss is the free space for the hangar (green circle).

So far, it was (probably for structural reasons) usual to add the overhang later. In so far I do not believe to see a complete fuselage cross section including overhang.

What do you think?

Probably another new - and IMO much larger - module of the Type 003 carrier currently under construction at the Jiangnan Shipyard.

At least it is the same location where the other module was seen before.

A new image of the PLAN's naval research and testing facility in Wuhan shows some new modifications to the island, its radar installation and sensor mast.

This image is over a year old. There's a big change on the mast now.
