Naga-L, also called Naga-1, is a light

carrier rocket under development by the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT). It is designed to compete on the international market for small-lift launch vehicles.^[1]

The project was unveiled on 14 October 2015 by Dr. Haoliang Yang during the 66th

Gobi desert, CALT is considering potential launches of Naga-L from spaceports in Sweden (Esrange), Indonesia (Pameungpeuk) and Tanzania.^[1]

Due to

commercial launch services market. Naga-L would bypass these constraints by exporting the rockets instead of importing the satellites.^[1]

Using components from the

Long March rocket family, notably the YF-75 and YF-100 engines, Naga-L could deliver up to 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) to a 400-kilometre (250-mile) circular low Earth orbit from Lapan and 900 kg (2,000 lb) to a 400-km Sun-synchronous orbit from Esrange or Jiuquan.^[2] Pricing would start at $10 million per mission.^[1]
