This is version 2 of Starship, with some upgrades, such as longer starship.

"Upgrades include a redesigned upper-stage propulsion system that can carry 25 per cent more propellant, along with slimmer, repositioned forward flaps to reduce exposure to heat during re-entry.

For the first time, Starship will deploy 10 Starlink simulators" [1].
