Overview
Two-stage kerolox rocket with a reusable first stage, designed as a Falcon 9-class vehicle able to loft up to ~36 satellites at once for China's satellite-internet constellations.
Maiden flight on April 3, 2026 failed after an engine-bay explosion ~33 seconds after liftoff. A second vehicle is reportedly nearing completion for a possible second attempt before the end of 2026.
