Long March 2C orbits Yaogan-51 satellites 07 to 09

Xinhua reported that at 23:58 Beijing time on Nov. 5, 2026 a Long March-2C lifted Yaogan-51 satellites 07, 08, and 09 from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center into their preset orbits. The official account says the satellites are mainly for scientific experiments and electromagnetic-environment detection, and that the flight was the 675th Long March mission. China News Service reported the same time, vehicle, site, and mission number. A launch tracker listed the flight as successful at 15:58 UTC. The catalog's last checked Long March count was the 671st on Oct. 10, so flights 672 through 674 were not opened here.
