Probably a retro fit. Fixed position propeller with a following rudder. Likely added a ring (nozzle) to the existing rudder or a new rudder with ring.

Someone is wasting a lot of engine power by not putting nozzle around the rudder. But then who are we, when no doubt that is the way a professional naval architect designed it - or was it someone or something else with less knowledge of what a kort is about? Lookout AI will be taking over our comments soon!!๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ

Some ships have the kort nozzle behind the propeller like this photo. Doesn't seem to make full advantage of the purpose of the nozzle.
