The first Kinecore-2 110tf engine has been officially delivered. Serving as the primary propulsion for the Kinetica reusable rocket series, this LOX/kerosene engine utilizes advanced pintle injection in both the gas generator and thrust chamber, enabling wide-range deep throttling for precision recovery.

Since its inception in Q2 2023, the Kinecore-2 program has hit every development milestone with precision. Following a successful manufacturing phase in 2024—including hot-fire and hydraulic validation of all core components—the engine completed full-system flow tests and final delivery reviews in early 2026.

The project is now entering its most critical phase. Following six upcoming full-system hot-fire tests, CAS Space will conduct a three-engine parallel propulsion test by year-end. This landmark trial will simulate recovery flight conditions, cementing the foundation for our reusable launch architecture.
