There is a photo from Chinese bbs comparing the first two Yuan class submarines. There does appear to be a number of clear differences between the first two launched, although they are minor. China has a very interesting shipbuilding strategy, and the word strategy applies, they evolve lessons into the design very quickly.
These are not the
Yuan class submarines we highlighted earlier this month, rather the first two at sea.
