Long March 11 Heavy Launch Vehicle
You may have some misunderstandings. The Long March 11 is a four-stage all-solid launch vehicle, not a heavy-duty launch vehicle. The Long March 11 was mainly used for rapid maneuvering launch of emergency satellites. It was featured by "fast, reliable, convenient and flexible" and had the technical advantages of "strong, large, fast and simple". It was mainly used to meet the needs of microsatellite launch in emergencies such as natural disasters and emergencies. It was about 20.8 meters long, with a maximum body diameter of 2 meters and a total mass of about 58 tons. It was mainly used to launch payloads in low-Earth orbit and sun-synchronous orbit. It was known as the "fast arrow" of China's Long March series of launch vehicles. Since the successful first flight on September 25,2015, it had completed 16 launch and achieved 16 consecutive victories on March 15,2023. It also carried out several launch missions from 2016 to 2023, such as the successful launch of the 24C satellite in the sea near Yangjiang, Guangdong Province at 6:39 on December 26,2023.

Long March 6 launch vehicle failed
On August 6, 2024, the Long March 6 launch vehicle disintegrated after launching from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, forming a debris cloud consisting of hundreds of fragments. At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on August 14, the spokesperson said that the event was part of China's peaceful use of outer space activities in accordance with international law and practice. China had taken the necessary measures and was closely monitoring the relevant orbital areas and conducting data analysis. China attached great importance to space debris reduction and actively fulfilled its international obligations in outer space activities. It regulated its own space activities and required the implementation of space debris reduction measures after satellites and launch vehicles completed their missions, so as to promote the protection of the outer space environment and maintain the long-term stability of outer space activities.

Why didn't the Long March 10 rocket launch?
As of November 15,2024, the Long March 10 rocket was still in the development and construction stage. Although important research and development work such as the first-stage power system test had been carried out, the entire rocket system still needed to complete various tests, verification, and construction of related facilities and equipment to ensure the high reliability and safety of the rocket, so it had not been launched yet.

Comparing Long March 9 and Long March 5
There were many comparisons between the Long March 9 and the Long March 5: 1. ** In terms of transportation capacity ** - Long March 5's low-Earth orbit carrying capacity was 25 tons, the Earth synchronous orbit carrying capacity was 14 tons (Long March 5B), and the Earth-Moon transfer orbit carrying capacity was 8 tons (Long March 5B). - Long March 9's low-Earth orbit carrying capacity was 140 tons, the Earth-Moon transfer orbit carrying capacity was 50 tons, and the Earth-Fire transfer orbit carrying capacity was 44 tons. Its carrying capacity far exceeded Long March 5. 2. ** Rocket size ** - The Long March 5 had a take-off mass of 867 tons. - The Long March 9 had a take-off mass of more than 4000 tons, a total height of 100 meters, and a core diameter of 10 meters. It was much larger than the Long March 5. 3. ** Research and Development ** - The Long March 5 had already been put into use and was ranked second among the large launch vehicles in active service in various countries. - The Long March 9 was in the key technical breakthrough and program deepening demonstration stage as of 2022. It was planned to make its first flight around 2030. 4. ** In terms of design ideas ** - The Long March 5 had many problems, such as the balance of interests of various departments, high technical difficulty, long research and development cycle, high cost, and basically no recycling potential. - The Long March 9 was a combination of the high-thrust high-pressure liquid oxygen kerosene engine that Russia was good at and the high-thrust hydrogen oxygen engine that the United States was good at. However, the high-thrust high-pressure liquid oxygen kerosene engine was still in pre-development, and the hydrogen oxygen engine was difficult to develop.

Long March 9 vs. Long March 5
The Long March 9 was different from the Long March 5 in many aspects: 1. ** Carrying capacity **: - The Long March 9 low-Earth orbit (LEO) had a carrying capacity of 140 tons, the Earth-Moon transfer orbit (LTO) 50 tons, and the Earth-Fire transfer orbit (TMT) 44 tons, while the Long March 5 low-Earth orbit had a carrying capacity of 25 tons and the synchronous transfer orbit 14 tons. It could be seen that the carrying capacity of the Long March 9 in low-Earth orbit, Earth-Moon transfer orbit, and Earth-Fire transfer orbit far exceeded that of the Long March 5. 2. ** size **: - The core of the Long March 9 had a diameter of 10 meters and a height of about 110 meters. The total length of the Long March 5 arrow was 56.97 meters and the diameter was 5 meters. Therefore, the Long March 9 was larger than the Long March 5 in diameter and height. 3. ** Take-off Quality **: - The Long March 9's take-off mass exceeded 4000 tons, while the Long March 5's take-off mass was about 878 tons. The Long March 9's take-off mass was nearly five times that of the Long March 5. 4. ** Mission usage **: - The Long March 9 was developed in response to the needs of future deep space exploration, manned moon landing and fire landing, space infrastructure construction (such as space solar power plants), and other missions. The Long March 5 was mainly used to complete the launch missions of various spacecraft such as low-Earth orbit satellites, Earth-synchronous transfer orbit satellites, Sun-synchronous orbit satellites, space stations, lunar probes, and Mars probes.
