I suppose this is the model that is supposed to be as quiet as the improved Los Angeles class but with better sonar and electronics.
Type-95 SSN should be better but unlikely to be comparable to the Virginia class.
The Type 095 is huge, most likely about 12000 tons submerged, so it is more likely aimed at the Seawolf class.
While the Type 093G is also reported being bigger than both regular Type 093 and LA class.
And Russia Today is also praising the Type 093G and calling it advanced, so it is definitely China's peer against the Virginia class.
