The new variant appears to have a substantially redesigned sail. This is partly obscured by the bridge, but it appears to have a chine running along the upper part. It is also possible that the shadow is part of a scaffolding around the sail, but this seems less likely. The chined sail is similar to the Swedish A-26 Blekinge class. If correct, this is likely to be the main visual identification point. Source hisutton.com
