Chinese infantry fighting vehicles

Any images of the new IFV with everything on the roof added?

Are these vehicles based on the same platform?
As I understand first one is the serial vehicle and the rest are from the trials.

Ground surveillance radar I think.

Might be to see metallic vehicle reflections through foliage.

An unknown new variant of Mengshi-III. Might be a mobile laser weapon.

Actually does sort of resemble the Type-99A's turret mounted laser "APS". Could serve dual roles of countering light drones and the same purpose of 99A's laser.

Production line for CS/VP14 MRAPs. Note the use of welding robots (1st image).
