Rumor says that at Space Pioneer's site in Gongyi, Henan, a certain engine test is going to happen soon.

OneSpace has introduced a containerized mobile (solid) rocket launch platform. Launch preparations can be carried out in as little as 30 minutes. A major use case is the rapid launch of communication and surveillance satellites over areas of natural disaster.

I see huge wartime potential in a superpower war, if existing military sats are jammed or destroyed. Launch one quickly, achieve objective, then its likely also destroyed but it has done its part.
