NET April 28 – Launch Long March 10B / Unknown Payload

Apr 28

Flight hazard notices were filed for a launch between April 28 and 30. This first Long March 10B vehicle has had a successful wet dress rehearsal and was rolled back to integration facilities, likely to integrate the payload. After launch, China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology will attempt recovery of a portion of the vehicle on an autonomous ship.

Long March 10A and Long March 10 Moon rockets use a near-identical first stage. Long March 10 series static fire tests were completed last year with seven YF-100K engines installed.
