Chinasat 2A

 2012-028A


In May 2012 'Zhongxing 2A' was launched. Codenamed the 07-55 launch, it is thought to have the secret name Shentong-2 and is the first of a new generation of strategic military communications satellites using the DFH-4 bus.

The GTO capability of CZ-3B is 5400 kg and one may assume ZX-2A is close to this value. The satellite carried the first TQS492-2 apogee engine.
