On January 19, a significant milestone was reached at the Baolongyu Test Area of the 165th Institute, part of the Sixth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. For the first time, the facility successfully conducted "three tests in one day" for liquid oxygen kerosene rocket engines. Precisely, two 120-ton-class engines and one 18-ton-class engine underwent successful testing at 9:43 AM, 10:47 AM, and 12:06 PM, respectively.

This achievement underscores a substantial advancement in the batch production, delivery, and test verification capabilities of the primary power engines for China's next-generation carrier rockets. This breakthrough will provide robust support for the high-density launch schedules of the Long March series rockets in the coming years.
