Wikipedia called the current in service Norinco twin 35mm self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery (SP-AAA) Type09 AAA/PGZ09 (
link). The official Ministry of National Defense of the People's Republic of China - in its latest PR release - labelled it "PGZ07". My money is with the official MND of the PRC release, not Wikipedia. Yes I am nitpicking here but also wanting to highlight the potential pitfall of citing Wikipedia to my PLA watching peers.
