Smart Dragon-3 launched the CentiSpace 02 satellite group from waters near Haiyang, Shandong, at 23:49 Beijing time on 22 March 2026. CASC published confirmation of success the following day; the event and publication dates remain distinct. This was the rocket's tenth flight. The release did not state a spacecraft count, so none is inferred from the group number. The four-stage solid vehicle serves Sun-synchronous and low-Earth-orbit launch requirements. The team improved space-based telemetry coverage through antenna-layout and fairing changes. It also used wired communication between front- and back-end operations for the first time on a flight, reducing exposure to the complex electromagnetic environment near shore. Those were mission-specific improvements, not a claim that every maritime location is suitable. This Haiyang launch remains separate from earlier Yangjiang flights and from Wenchang missions.
