When did those phase 2 apfsds enter service?
Is it made of DU or Tungsten?

nope

In general, is there any information about the structure of the packages?
 
Thickness, I suppose is "located" between 200mmm-225mm, I suppose that there should be at least 80-100mm composite layers between the opening sheet (20-40 mm) of steel and closing (80-100mm) steel sheet?

In addition, by photographs, as far as I can judge, the upper frontal part ZTZ99A "returned" to the angle of about 68 degrees against ~ 70 used on ZTZ99? 
And it is quite possible that the thickness has been increased? For example, up to ~ 235-240mm?

Ah yes, the most credible source for top secret and complex armor details, wart chunder. 

While it is silly to use Wart chunder as a reference, it's not to farfetched to state that the ZTZ-96/99 series are protected over a smaller frontal arc than their Western and Russian counterparts, based on geometry.
