CASC announced on 24 February that it plans to conduct the maiden flight of the CZ-6A carrier rocket before the end of this year. The rocket, developed by SAST in Shanghai will be able to serve different orbits. Featuring modular designs and flexibility, the rocket will be able to conduct a wide variety of launch missions and will be economically attractive to clients, designers said. Despite being called CZ-6A, the new rocket will be very different from the CZ-6, which was also designed and built by the Shanghai Academy.
