PLA naming system
As we might know, PLAGF- People's Liberation Army Ground Forces has a "fax-machine like" naming system, according to PhlyDaily's title of his ZTZ96 video, but there is actually a pattern and standards. Known as the 《全军武器装备命名规则》(Naming Regulations for Military Equipment) since 1987 and the later 《中国人民解放军装备命名规定》(PLA's Regulations on Equipment Naming) from 2012, instead of the very political naming in the early 1960s and the well-known Type XX of certain vehicle (as far as I can dig up from known documentations).
WZ-numbers means WuZhuang 武装 (Armed) code from factory issued by Central Military Commission 中央军委, such as WZ123 in ZTZ99 case.
The following table will give you a speculation of (usual) vehicles naming and how it works, capitalized character is the first letter of its pinyin.
