We have successfully tested the Kinecore (Liqing) - 1 engine with a 180s hot fire test. The 294 kN (ground thrust) engine will power the Lihong-2 reusable suborbital vehicle.
The engine is developed in-house, featuring a pintle injector mechanism, and is constructed from 3D-printed 316L stainless steel. The successful testing marks another step forward in our sub-orbital program and space tourism.

CAS-SPACE recently completed a 180-s hot fire test of the Kinecore-1 kerolox engine. With 294kN thrust at sea level, it will be used to power the Lihong-2 reusable rocket for suborbital space science experiments and tourism. Think of it like BlueOrigin's New Shepard

Лихун

Какое малороссийское название, красота. Лихун и его двигун.

Но вообще молодцы, 3D-печать, картинки, парашюты, все дела.

Our subsequent missions are Kinetica-1 Y11 and the inaugural suborbital flight of Lihong-1. Both are scheduled for late November.

Суборбитальный пуск планируют в конце ноября.
