The model at IDEAS show a
Structure in the back which looked like not sure what what ? But I think 054b had 11 barrels 30 mm gun vs 7 barrel 30 mm gun along with new engine technology so the question is is it 11 barrel gun system or 7 ??

The new gun is considered far superior then 7 barrel

These pictures are all renderings and not actual.

The actual specs are yet to be released and some keyboard naval architects are already jumping up & down.

It is an upgraded version of the 054A and the requirements were given by PN, that is the reason it is termed as F22P Batch II.

This is Type54B. All sensors are integrated into the mast

If these CGIs (or the scale model displayed at the ceremony) are accurate, then it is not an integrated mast. It's the same traditional mast as the PLAN 054As, except the radar is a new APAR instead of the PESA which was the Chinese Fregat-M2 'Top Plate' copy.

These pictures may not be official, but I see no difference with the official Type 054A/P illustration displayed by CSSC & PN at the ceremony. The pictures are also consistent with an earlier report (on Sina) that PN's version was to get the SR2410C APAR.

Illustration displayed at the ceremony:

Model shown at IDEAS 2018:

One thing I find common in all these is there are 2x double AShM launchers (reportedly CM-302), which I hope isn't true in the actual ship (should be 2x quad launchers).

Rest assured, with OTH radar + APAR, this is a badass configuration.

Sir any plans to upgrade existing F-22Ps along the lines?

Btw, the 'APAR' radar on these ships (SR-2410C) is the same one as on the latter batch of Bangladesh Navy Type-056 (aka C13B) corvettes, namely the BNS Shongram and Prottasha, pennant F113 and F114 respectively:

In all honesty...sensors-wise, the 054P isn't all that different from the BanglaNavy 056. In fact what should be of note to the PN is that until the 054P enters service, the Bangladeshi ships will actually have superior sensors to any PN surface combatant.

These new frigates are sorely needed for PN otherwise their surface component would become woefully outdated even when compared to other South Asian navies.

What about OTH radar?

There is that, which is why I said "not all that different". But it is surprising to see the main multifunction radar on a supposed 4000+ ton frigate being the same one as on a 1300-ton corvette.

I reckon this is not what PLAN wants to use as their main frigate radar going forward? I think it would be an integrated mast with a 4-faced static APAR like this:

You can find the PN prefers mature and reliable products, as China has builded 2 Type 054 FFGs and 30 Type 054A FFGs.

What are these two thingy next to chaff launchers on top of heli hanger at the end ?

No hq-10 at the back as seen on some 054a repacking 30mm guns, the IDEAS model had some additional eqpt but it was hard to make out
