Per a personal message with a SAST employee, the rocket used to launch YG-14 is CZ-4B Y12.
Has anybody tried to collect factory numbers of Chinese launch vehicles?For example, for CZ-2C I've seen images with numbers Y802504, Y802706, Y902009 and Y903210 (that's from October 1992 with Freja).For a CZ-3 -- Y801303.For two CZ-3A -- Y901201 and Y901302.For a CZ-2D -- 4902Y.
Why do you people collect factory numbers of rockets? US, India, China, Japan, Russia ??
