Even with the blueprint, they are showing how hard this was for Space X to get done many years ago.

I love how they cut out everything past the landing burn for the first stage

Almost took out the landing pad.
Cratered real good she did.

Landing for ZhuQue-3, on a technical level, is slightly easier than what SpaceX and Blue Origin are doing. Landing on land with a big target simulates the matter.
You can also see that this rocket is far more inspired by Falcon 9 than neutron or New Glenn

they just straight out copied spacex like this ?

Slap a giant made in China sticker on that bad boy so these Chinese shills can understand the quality difference. You can steal western tech all day that doesn’t mean it’s not garbage!

Space x been doing this. Getting “close” is cute though..

Idk about close, the engine blew up instantly after reigniting. Regardless, failure is part of the process and I look forward to see them land it on the next one!
