Quote from: SmallKing on 10/23/2017 02:06 pmUPDATED: Nov. 21, according to the 9ifly scheduleIt seems that the date was only a guess from a forum member (who isn't an insider) without using any reliable sources. Indeed it is still not known which rocket will be used for the next Jilin-1 satellites (could be the next CZ-6 instead, or even KZ-1A/11), except that they announced that two more launches are planned this year with 3 & 2 satellites respectively.

Why is the vehicle already assembled if the launch is in a month? Is it some kind of systems test?
Jilin-1 optical satellite (high resolution multi-spectralpanchromatic): Resolution 0.72 m - 420 kgA imaging validation satellite with 4.7 m resolution - 50 kg (LQSat ?)Two video imaging satellites: 4K ultra-clear video resolution 1.13 meters - 95 kg each (LQ Lingqiao-A/B ?)
1 x 420 kg class main satellite (specifications on graph 1)1 x 65 kg class agile imaging demonstration satellite (specifications on graph 2)2 x 95 kg class video imaging satellite (specifications on graph 3)
Hi SmallKing, in the subject heading you type as Jilin-1(04-06)...the numbers in the bracket, does it represent Jilin-1(04), Jilin-1(05) and Jilin-1(06), the three satellite to be launched?
