Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com, 6 March, on December 7 last year, the Kuaizhou 11 solid carrier rocket ignited and lifted off from China's Jiuquan Satellite launch Center, successfully sending the Yunyun Traffic VDES test satellite into the scheduled orbit, and the launch mission was a complete success. This mission is the 23rd flight of the Clipper series of carrier rockets.

The aerospace industry has previously said that the number of launches of the Kuaizhou series carrier rockets will be more than seven times in 2023.

Feng Jiehong, deputy to the National people's Congress and secretary of the Sanjiang Party Committee and chairman of China Aerospace Science and Technology Industry, revealed yesterday that this year's "Kuaizhou" rockets will enter a period of intensive launch. "in 2023, the Kuaizhou 1A and Kuaizhou 11 rockets are expected to carry out 810 launch missions."

CTOnews.com science popularization: the Kuaizhou series carrier rocket was developed by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, adopted the first international integrated technology of star and arrow, and adopted the grid rudder control technology for the first time in China. It is China's first small solid carrier rocket with rapid integration and fast orbit entry ability, creating the fastest record for China's space launch and expanding China's space launch vehicle from liquid carrier rocket to solid carrier rocket. It has initially formed the space rapid response capability that China urgently needs.

The Kuaizhou-1 solid carrier rocket successfully launched the Kuaizhou-1 satellite for the first time on September 25, 2013. This rocket is the first integrated design of satellite and arrow in the world, and it is also the first small solid launch vehicle in China with innovative characteristics such as rapid integration, rapid entry into orbit, grid wing rudder surface and so on.

Aerospace Sanjiang successfully carried out China's first commercial space launch mission in January 2017 through an upgraded version of the Clipper 1A solid carrier rocket. Up to now, the rocket has successfully carried out 16 launches, sending 29 satellites into orbit and setting a record for the shortest launch interval of the same type of carrier rocket at the same launch site.

"the most important feature of the fast boat rocket is that it can be made quickly, launched quickly, and put into orbit quickly. It only needs a hard ground the size of a basketball court, and only one laptop can be used to implement launch control, and one person and one car can complete the launch task."

According to Feng Jiehong, the general-purpose components of the Clipper rocket have realized mass and large-scale production, and through fine planning and overall arrangement, the customized development work can be carried out in parallel with multi-task development and launch support.

"this rocket will be fully launched on the market this year, which will greatly enhance China's ability to enter orbital space at a low cost and quickly," he said. "
