Track; not yet
- Why
- State-backed and very-high activity, but service is non-existent for any Western/commercial use, deployment is far behind its own ramp and ITU deadlines, and it is a dual-use Chinese government network with no addressable API or NTN integration path for us.
- Next
- Monitor 2026 year-end count vs the 310-satellite target and the ITU 10%-by-end-of-2026 milestone; re-assess if launch cadence clears ~30 sats/month and a reusable LM-12B/Zhuque-3 enters operational service.
