I was watching a propaganda documentary from October and spotted a Y-20 under construction with a label of Y20-0220 on the scaffold. Could this be the 20th airframe from batch 2?

Base on my personal experience, this 10A340-Y20-0220 is painted on the production platform and not on the plane, so it doesn't mean anything to the aircraft serial. It indicates more likely the gantry's number, or frame / stringer's number, or the station's reference.
