Kuaizhou-11

Kuaizhou-11 is ExPace's larger road-mobile solid launch vehicle for rapid single- or multi-satellite deployment. Its carbon-composite structure and mobile test, integration, launch, and tracking architecture provide up to 1,500 kilograms of low-Earth-orbit capacity or at least 1,000 kilograms to a 700-kilometre sun-synchronous orbit. After its 2020 maiden-flight failure, it returned successfully in 2022 and remains operational.
