If you are comparing these tents with what you denoted as T3, T5 and T7 before, I fail to see any specific similarities. Can you point them out?
Did you see the video and there the 3D images of tents?
If you didn't:
generally Roselli's map confirms the design of tents with blue, yellow (and red) colouring, maybe even stars or sprinkles. Crimean Khanate tents were obviously not just all-white yurtes as one might think.
View angles upside-down, by side (and from above?) are making it also possible that VMS tents are drawn in a perspective from above, medival drawings did not care very much for "perspective correctness" and sizes.
Full square black flags with triangled spikes at one rim show the positions of some Crimean Khanate outposts and join them with tents, so we see a representation of this young state at Crimea and north of it.
Specially the center pole construction with a kind of knob at tip of mast is also shown as detail in T5 and T7 of VMS map, while T3 comes with "mongolian style" smokehole and another type of subframe (necessarily when there is no center pole).
