China's 13th #Arctic Ocean scientific expedition team on Tue reached the North Pole aboard icebreaker Xuelong 2 and investigated the atmosphere, hydrology, biology & sea-ice conditions near latitude 90° North, before heading back to China late Sept: Ministry of Natural Resources

While Xue Long 2 is certainly the first #icebreaking polar research vessel built in China, the #PolarClass3 vessel is based on our Aker #ARC128 design.
The design contract was awarded in 2012 and the project concluded with full-scale ice trials in 2019:

The chapter "Dissecting the Dragons" in this @CAGlobalAffairs paper is probably the best summary of the technical differences between Xue Long (converted Project 10621 cargo ship) and Xue Long 2 (purpose-built #icebreaking research vessel based).
