On January 2023 Beijing Zhongke Aerospace Exploration Technology Co., Ltd. Lijian-1 and Yao-2 carrier rockets are undergoing final assembly and testing at the China Science and Technology Aerospace Industrialization Base, and are scheduled to launch in Jiuquan in May 2023! At the beginning of the new year, Lijian-1 Yao-2 (Zhongke-1-A) carrier rocket carried out final assembly and testing work as planned at the China Science and Technology Aerospace Flight Technology Industrialization Base, and plans to launch at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in May 2023 . The mission load of the launch vehicle is Changsha Tianyi Space Technology Co., Ltd. Fucheng 1, TY26 and other satellites, with a total weight of 1 ton. As a lean, digital and intelligent launch vehicle industrial base built by Zhongke Aerospace, the Zhongke Aerospace Flight Science and Technology Industrialization Base is running smoothly, and will have an annual production capacity of 30 launch vehicles in the future.


The final assembly and testing of the Lijian-1 Yao-2 launch vehicle fully verified the rocket power system, structural system, flight control system, avionics system, launch support system, etc., marking the largest solid launch vehicle in China—” “Lijian No. 1” is making great strides towards standardization and mass production.

The final assembly site of the Lijian-1 carrier rocket is a domestic first-class and internationally advanced aerospace industrialization base built by China Science and Technology Aerospace. It is located in Nansha District, Guangzhou City, and is located in the geometric center of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Mu, which is mainly used to carry out the development, production, test, final assembly and testing of serialized solid and liquid launch vehicles, and based on this, it will attract upstream and downstream related aerospace companies to land, and create an integrated “industry-university-research-government-finance” international The first-class aerospace industry cluster forms the first commercial aerospace industrial park in China.

Beijing Zhongke Aerospace Exploration Technology Co., Ltd. is the first domestic aerospace enterprise with mixed ownership, and it is also the target enterprise that Oriental Aerospace Port focuses on introducing. Relying on the scientific research strength and resource advantages of the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Aerospace Flight Technology Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Aerospace Science and Technology has been committed to the research and development and integration of space technology and aerospace vehicles as a platform for the transformation of major national scientific research projects, as well as the transformation and provision of technological achievements. Aerospace launch service. The Lijian-1 rocket project also adds a brand-new name card to the Oriental Space Port, which will surely promote the construction of the Oriental Space Port to take a solid step forward.
