The YF-100M is intended for the second stage of the CZ-10 with two engines.
A Long March 10A may deliver an experimental lunar satellite on its maiden flight in the weeks after the Long March 10B launch.
The tri-core Long March 10 Moon rockets are scheduled for introduction next year.
The autonomous Long March 10 series booster-catching ship Linghangzhe participated in a catch simulation with the Long March 10A test booster on February 11.
The Long March 10A is a single-core two-stage variant with a YF-100M-powered second stage and a payload capacity of around 14,000 kilograms to low Earth orbit.
The Long March 10 series static fire test article was fired twice in August and September 2025 with seven YF-100K engines installed.
The tri-core Long March 10 Moon rocket is a three-stage variant able to send up to 27,000 kilograms toward the Moon.
The Long March 10B first stage is common to the Long March 10A and Long March 10 Moon rocket variants.
The Long March 10A, the Long March 10B, and the Mengzhou-1 mission will use near-identical first stages.
China is developing the Long March 10 heavy-lift crewed lunar launch vehicle.
The recovery hooks on the Long March 10B are intended to catch the first-stage booster on the autonomous Long March 10 series booster-catching ship Linghangzhe if the recovery ship is ready in a recovery zone.
The Long March 10 series will gather flight data ahead of the introduction of tri-core Long March 10 Moon rockets next year.
The Long March 10 series has already flown guidance and recovery systems on the Long March 10A test booster for Mengzhou’s in-flight abort test.
Scaffolding on the CZ-10 VAB at Wenchang is coming down.
The Long March 10B, Long March 10A, and Mengzhou-1 missions will use near-identical first stages.
A Long March 10A may launch an experimental lunar satellite on its maiden flight in the weeks after the Long March 10B debut.
Second-stage engine tests for the Long March 10 variants have been completed.
The sea recovery platform for the Long March 10 variants has been completed.
The Long March 10A is intended for the Mengzhou crew spacecraft.
CASC plans to debut two reusable Long March 10 variants next year.
