CTOnews.com news on December 4, according to the Blue Arrow Aerospace news on December 3, on December 1, the Blue Arrow Space Vermilion Bird-2 remote three liquid oxygen methane carrier rocket has been smoothly transferred to the launch area, ready to choose an aircraft to carry out the launch mission in the near future.

From the video released by the official, we can see that the Vermilion Bird-2 remote three rocket has completed its erection, and it seems that the launch is not far away.

According to reports, the rocket will carry effective satellite payloads, and based on the flight data and test and launch experience accumulated in previous launch missions, some product designs have been improved and optimized, and the test and launch process has been optimized and adjusted to further enhance and strengthen the reliability and safety of the products.

Blue Arrow Aerospace said that Vermilion Bird 2 remote 3 carrier rocket officially carries out commercial launch missions, and is expected to become the first private liquid rocket to be launched successfully in China. it will mark that Blue Arrow Aerospace is the first to enter a new stage of large-scale commercial launch of liquid rockets.

Vermilion Bird II carrier rocket is a two-stage cryogenic liquid carrier rocket with a diameter of 3.35m, a total length of 49.5m, a take-off mass of 219t and a take-off thrust of 268t. The first stage of the rocket uses four "Tianque" 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engines in parallel; the rocket second-stage engine uses a single "Tianque" 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engine and "Tianque" 10-ton swimming liquid oxygen methane engine, and the configuration of the main engine is the same as that of the first-class engine. The rocket stages are separated by cold separation, and the fairing is separated by spinning separation.

▲ Vermilion Bird-2 carrier rocket, Tuyuan Blue Arrow Space official website according to previous reports, the Vermilion Bird-2 liquid oxygen methane carrier rocket (code name "ZQ-2 Y2") was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite launch Center on July 12. The mission was completed according to the program, and the launch mission was a complete success, becoming the first carrier rocket in the world with liquid oxygen and methane propellant capable of entering orbit.

This is also the first successful launch of a liquid oxygen methane carrier rocket in the domestic private commercial aerospace field, marking a major breakthrough in the application of new low-cost liquid propellants in China.

Zhang Changwu, CEO of ▲ Vermilion Bird II remote two liquid oxygen methane carrier rocket, Tuyuan Blue Arrow Aerospace Officer Micro Blue Arrow, said that there were three rockets in the first batch of test arrows developed by Vermilion Bird II, and the development goal of Blue Arrow was to verify the overall design and performance of the product through three rockets.

"if the Blue Arrow can achieve the flight success of the Vermilion Bird-2 rocket within nearly a year, it will start to make small batch deliveries to the market next year. 3-4 rounds next year, double the year after next, and strive to double in each year for three consecutive years."
