Nov. 27,At Baikonur, preparations for the Progress MS-13 cargo ship for launch under the International Space Station program, scheduled for December 6, 2019 from the site of 31 cosmodromes, continue.https://www.roscosmos.ru/27803/
Do we see Progress MS-14 in the background of these Progress MS-13 processing images?
Also, if Progress MS-14 is in Baikonur instead of Vostochniy, does this mean Progress launches are not yet ready to move to Vostochniy? (I expect that will be "news" when the move happens.)

What changes, if any, need to be made to make this possible? Programming only?It's possible because they are unmanned. Vostochny Soyuz-2 versions are different to Baikonur's so spacecraft and launcher require new System designations upon completion of certification process for Progress-MS/UM to be processed and fly from Vostochny.In addition to my previous post Mr Zak, per Facebook PM, says new Progress-MS specific processing stands and hardware would have to be built, shipped and installed at Vostochny which will take time to procure and certify so next year at the earliest is most likely when the switch could occur.

Do we know the serial number of this rocket?
Quote from: ace5 on 03/31/2020 09:28 pmDo we know the serial number of this rocket?Probably Я15000-038, delivered last year with fairing Я15000-125, which we can see on photos related to Progress MS-14.
