Seems Type 075 shares the same radar with Type 054A, Type 076 shares the same radar with Type 054B.

It would be great to see the demonstrator bird in CAC before Chinese new year.

Any hints about the province it will be named after?

We'll only know the right answer when it's officially announced.
But, military fans in various provinces of China have already begun to “quarrel”.
This web picture, which has been widely circulated on Chinese social media. It deeply reflects the mood of military fans in all provinces.
I'm not sure my PDF friends will be able to read it.

Test and training facilities found on satellite images.
From this, it can be determined that the GJ-11 will definitely be in 076 official service.
