China completes ignition test for powerful liquid-propellant engine

For more: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2024-04-30/China-completes-ignition-test-for-powerful-liquid-propellant-engine-1tdHsX5bGes/p.html China successfully completed an ignition test for its liquid-propellant engine with the highest thrust. This marks a new breakthrough in the country's liquid propulsion development. It is also the first-ever parallel ignition test of four large-thrust liquid oxygen (LOX) kerosene engines. The 130-tonne class LOX kerosene engine has a total thrust of over 500 tonnes. Compared to the currently operational 120-tonne class LOX kerosene engines, it boasts not only a larger thrust and better performance, but also a more compact structure, effectively enhancing the rocket's carrying capacity. After the test run, the engines will be delivered for rocket launching missions upon an engine check.
