On June 29, Zhuque-3 repeated the use of a Long March-2C carrier rocket to successfully complete a static ignition test at the Dongfeng Commercial Space Innovation Test Site. According to the introduction, this test comprehensively inspected the rocket system, launch site system, and the compatibility between the two. All systems worked normally, and the test data and results met expectations, verifying the correctness and coordination of the system operation, laying a foundation for subsequent flight missions. Zhuque-3 is a large liquid launch vehicle independently developed by China for large-scale constellation networking tasks, with large carrying capacity, low cost, and reusability. It uses stainless steel as the main structural material for the rocket body, and can autonomously return with high precision after executing orbit launch missions, achieving a soft landing and reusability at the recovery site. Currently, all key ground verification work for the launch of Zhuque-3 with the Long March-2C carrier rocket has been completed. In the future, the test team will carry out various launch preparation work according to the established plan to fully prepare for the execution of flight test missions.
