This website is great. Thanks for the link and guide. Regarding navigation, I find it easiest to just mouse over a link and look at the English URL.
do you mean hovering over the pictures on the home page and check which URL it leads to? That is what I was trying to say. I guess my brain froze when writing the tutorial :/

Oh, btw, if anyone's curious:

I'm sure the CIWS is not Type 730B. F-22P has Type 730B and it definitely doesn't look like the CIWS shown in the MV. I think the CIWS uses H/PJ-13's Gatling gun but with a new ammunition feed system like those used in Type 730/1130 (in the rotating housing instead of penetrating the deck like AK-630 or H/PJ-13).

P.s. Here's a link about H/PJ-13:

Found it while double-checking the new CIWS barrel shape.

P.p.s. While I'm at it, here're articles about

I made a screenshot of it.

Yes, it looks like the gatling is from the H/PJ-13 with the 730's mount and feed, with a new, more stealthy housing.

Step 1-3 are the same as before, the rest are as below.

Also interesting is that 555 puts the circular dome on the platform before its bridge, whereas the other ship of the same type (likely 553) puts it on top of the bridge.

In 2012, both 553 and 555 got retrofitted with SATCOM on top of their bridges, which is now replaced by the circular dome.

Its a refitted model. You can see from its ESM and ECM units along with the shape of the turret.
