Mission Profile

The Kinetica-2 (Lijian-2, 力箭二号) is a planned two-stage Chinese launch vehicle in the Kinetica family, a larger follow-on to the solid-fuelled Kinetica-1 being developed by CAS Space for medium-lift commercial satellite deployment. With a planned first launch around mid-2026, the Kinetica-2 will significantly increase CAS Space's payload capacity to serve China's growing demand for commercial constellation launches.
