Next-generation AESA radar for China's Type 052C destroyer undergoes tests

The current S-band AESA radar for China's Type 052C destroyer is convex-shaped. It has "a maximum range of 450km and a maximum resolution of 0.5 meters."

The new next-generation AESA radar is flat and square-shaped (shown below). Its capabilities are currently unknown.

"New" can mean another new ship or a "new" model. I'm pretty sure he means the former.
