YF-100 LOX kerosene Sea level thrust 124 tons rocket engine taxi test

[malllawcha]

200 seconds taxi test

Sea level thrust: 1,223.5 kN

1,223.5 kN / 9.8 = 124 tons, am i wrong?

Great news. Within 3 years China will have 130 ton LEO rocket!!!

We will soon have our own Saturn V!

I think they are simulating the complete burning of the first stage rocket (approx 4 min)

Anyone know the throw weight?

 

[malllawcha]

what throw weight??? 投掷重量???

 

[no_name]

Are you referring to the weight of payload that the rocket can throw into orbit, or what?

 

[Akasa]

Yes, the payload that the rocket can bring to Low Earth Orbit.

Long March 5 (LM-5, CZ-5, or Changzheng 5) is a Chinese next-generation heavy lift launch system that is currently under development by China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT). Currently, six CZ-5 vehicle configurations[1] are planned for different missions, with a maximum payload capacity of 25,000 kg to LEO and 14,000 kg to GTO. The Long March 5 will have the second largest "carrying capacity factor" of any rocket after Boeing's Delta IV Heavy.[2] The CZ-5 rocket is due to be first launched in 2014 from Wenchang Satellite Launch Center on Hainan island.

sad, not comparable with US and russia.

China has the plan to build the rocket with huge LEO which rivals US.

Russia is simply out of the picture.

details?
russian got Angara, "which are to provide lifting capabilities between 2,000 and 40,500 kg into low earth orbit" from wikipedia, which is much much bigger than ours long march 5, and will likely be in service in the same period of ours LM-5. "first flight test of Angara is now scheduled for 2013" from wikipedia, "The CZ-5 rocket is due to be first launched in 2014 from Wenchang Satellite Launch Center on Hainan island." from wikipedia.

and compare RD-191 with YF-100, Thrust(Sea Level) 196 tf (1,920 kN) with 124 tf (1223 kN), both is kerosene / LOX engine. we r simply behind.

China always looks up at nobody except US.

??130?_?_

 

[malllawcha]

thank you, but its so far away. i wont put that in the comparison of china and russia or any others present space capabilities.

 

[malllawcha]

yes, russia current status disappoint me too, when i look at their so called 5th gen fighter. may be their mitsubishi machine tool doesnt help when they r building a 5th gen fighter, not a su-27. but hey, they are successor of former super power, it wont hurt to expect a surprise from them. may be their current "5th gen fighter" is just a trick, to cheat indian for cash, then put the money on the real russian 5th gen fighter project, its brilliant if thats true.
