More detailed information on the manned lunar rover project. After two rounds of expert assessment of various submitted proposals, two designs have been chosen for prototype development. One is being developed by Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology (SAST) and the other by a subsidiary of CASC. The two prototypes will be pitted again each other, and the winner will be sent to the moon. China Manned Space Agency is now soliciting the public for names for the manned rover.

the big surprise for me is, contract won by CAC. famously known for J-10/J-20 manufacturer.. so military+civilian fusion. nice

Maybe CAC was behind Shenlong
