I repeat the question. That would be the third barracks ship, a new one, with the second moved to where the Type 055s are.

... or the 2nd moved back to where the carriers are.

Based on the most recent pictures we have of the Type 055 area there is a cruise ship there which I believe should be pennant 88. Its possible that the cruise ship contains the crew that is used to do sea trials, in this case, two new Type 052D doing this.

If 88 has moved back, then it can be for the trials of the second carrier.

88 is paired with 16 Liaoning, 89 is paired with the 2nd carrier. Why should they change this? I believe, the accomodation ships have installations especialy configured for and connected with their parent ships.

Could you develop more about this?

We had seen pictures of an other accommodation ship, that has rooms like an university: chambers for people doing studies with computers and so on and class rooms with whiteboards, projectors. The conclusion was, that there are more than one crew for any aircraft carrier.
