TheLong March 4B (Chinese:长征四号乙火箭), also known as theChang Zheng 4B,CZ-4B, andLM-4B, is a Chinese expendableorbital launch vehicle. Launched from Launch Complex 1 at theTaiyuan Satellite Launch Center, it is a 3-stage launch vehicle, used mostly to place satellites intolow Earth orbit andSun-synchronous orbits. It was first launched on 10 May 1999, with theFY-1C weather satellite, which would later be the target in the2007 Chinese anti-satellite missile test.

The Chang Zheng 4B experienced its only launch failure on 9 December 2013, with the loss of theCBERS-3 satellite.^[4]
