The AESA antenna is actually positioned higher than the bridge, and the two radar systems are installed on both sides of the ship to prevent obstructing the view from the bridge.

Indeed, it's certainly positioned in as practical a position to minimize coverage of the bridge as much as possible, but by nature of the lookdown/surface search emissions, it's still going to end up flagging a decent chunk of the superstructure -- unless of course, it is programmed not to.

Yankee just said on air specifically this ship is not a movie prop. He said the reason behind this ship is crazier than Trump class battleship.
Yankee "you think those Nazi German auxiliary cruisers are crazy? The logic behind this ship is crazier than that."

Here's Ayi also saying it's not a prop:

This is because the stuff you listed needed to be ready for MIC 2025. Now that the checkpoint has been reached we won’t see as many radical new developments.
Checkpoint should be the end of this year, 2026 marks the start of 155 not 2025. Also, I don't think military projects has anything to do with MIC2025 which is a civilian thing.

Shilao also said in the stream to consider this is a ship that has maybe 100 TEU capacity. Consider if you scale this same concept to one of those giant 20,000 TEU container ship, how big of an arsenal ship that would be.

Anyone know the size and displacement of the ship?

Only surface area scales up with these things and not volume. The launchers need to be erected.

That's hilarious, the text on the container reads "The Plan for the Maritime Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation and the Maritime Community with a Shared Future for Mankind (中华民族海洋复兴与人类海洋命运共同体计划)"
Very high degree of "Impressive, with this (...) and dignified multilateralism". Putting copypasta into real tangible things lmao.
