In China confirmed the reusability of the developed rocket plane, making the appropriate tests. Reportedly, the unit made a vertical take-off launch vehicle from the Jiuquan satellite launch center, located in Gansu province in the North-Western part of China, conducted a suborbital flight, and landed "on the airplane" at the airport Alashan of Si in the Autonomous region of Inner Mongolia in the North of the country.

It is worth noting that in July last year, the Chinese Corporation for space science and technology (CASC) reported a successful test of the reusable suborbital vehicle, also without revealing any details. Everything else was exactly the same: vertical launch from Jiuquan spaceport - suborbital flight - horizontal landing at the airport Alashan of Si.
As stated in Beijing, China transformed from a cosmic powers in "the great cosmic power."
