The Type 055A looks like 190 meters according to the newest version of the GE. Maybe they have increased to 128 VLS units from the 112 VLS units of the original Type 055. Also, the railgun is rumored to be the main gun for the Type 055A.

The Type 052DL will have many units to follow up, and I don't think its successor is going to appear any time soon.

Why not 052E, there is still roam for improvement to Arleigh burke level in terms of VLS cells.

128 VLS with railgun will be a arsenal ship for PLAN.
 
videos from Japan, note the third video has no type 052D in it only Japanese warships but any way no harm is done in sharing it & in a way it is related since these ships were part of the same parade that the 052D was supposed to take part in:-
