朱鹏二号On the  12th July 2023酒泉衛星發射中心 Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center LandSpace Blue Arrow Aerospace Center,   LandSpace 蓝箭航天Suzaku-2 Yao-2  Carrier rocket successfully Launched At 09:00 Hours on July 12th, 2023, Beijing time, the Suzaku-2 Yao-2 carrier rocket was launched at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, Inner Mongolia, China, People’s Republic of China  The flight mission was completed according to the procedure, and the launch mission was a complete success. This mission is the second flight of the Suzaku-2 carrier rocket. Today, Blue Arrow proves to the world that methane can fly!

The LANDSPACE flight mission was completed according to the procedure, and the launch mission was a complete success. This mission is the second flight of the Suzaku-2 launch vehicle. The Suzaku-2 rocket has become the first launch vehicle in human history that uses liquid methane as a propellant to successfully enter orbit….

朱鹏二号 At present, the reusable liquid fuel engines that have completed the whole system test run include: “Lingyun” (10 tons of thrust, liquid oxygen methane) and “Dragon Cloud” (80 tons of thrust, liquid oxygen methane) of Kyushu Yunjian , “Thunder-R1” of Deep Blue Aerospace (20 tons of thrust, liquid oxygen kerosene), “Sky” of Galaxy Power (50 tons of thrust, liquid oxygen kerosene), “Focus One” of Star Glory (15 tons of thrust, liquid oxygen kerosene) Methane), Tianbing Science and Technology’s “Tianhuo 11” (30 tons thrust, liquid oxygen kerosene) and “Tianhuo 12” (110 tons thrust, liquid oxygen kerosene), Aerospace Propulsion “Canglong One” (60 tons thrust, liquid oxygen methane), etc.

From vertical beautiful picture! The Suzaku-2 Yao-2 carrier rocket, which uses liquid oxygen methane as propellant, has a two-stage configuration. The diameter of the rocket body is 3.35 meters, the height of the whole rocket is 49.5 meters, the take-off weight is 219 tons, and the take-off thrust is 268 tons. The fairing has a maximum diameter of 3.35 meters and a total length of 8.237 meters. The first stage of the rocket uses four Tianque 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engines connected in parallel, and the second stage uses a combination of Tianque 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engine and a Tianque 10-ton swimming liquid oxygen methane engine.

[The launch of Suzaku-2 should have no payload] Attentive netizens have noticed that the Blue Arrow’s draft did not mention any satellite payload information. According to anecdotal reports, there was no payload for this launch, only a counterweight. This is also reasonable. After all, the first flight failed, and no one can say whether the go-around will be successful. It is also understandable to be on the safe side to launch the counterweight. The reason is similar for Star Glory Yao 5 to launch without payload.

So Suzaku-2 has only passed the first big test, and there is a test of entering orbit with a load before the actual operation, which should be the next launch.

Blue Arrow’s success came at the right time, because according to rumours, Blue Arrow happened to be one of the major launch parties of my country’s X-net Internet constellation, and its successful orbital success in time proved its launch capability. strong condition. In China’s private aerospace industry today, basically those who can win orders from the X network have a high probability of surviving
