Hunan Space Bureau / Hunnan Space Agency (068 Base)
Located in Changsha, Hunan province, the Hunnan Space Agency oversees one research institute and five factories involved with aerospace electromechanical equipment associated with surface-to-air missiles, and R&D of special materials.The 068 Base was established in 1970 in Hunan‘s Shaoyang area as a third line production complex. Currently centered in Changsha, its core competencies include special materials and components, such as magnets, diamond coatings, and antennas.
More recently, the base has become a key center for R&D and production of reconnaissance platforms operating in near space. The PRC has placed a relatively high priority on developing sensors for persistent surveillance from near-space. However, coverage from platforms similar to satellites in low Earth orbit could offer significant improvements in resolution. Duration of flight for near-space vehicles far exceeds that of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and their small radar and thermal cross-sections make them difficult to track and target.
7,801 Institute of China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation (Hunan Institute of aerospace equipment and specialty materials) was founded 1992 Year, mainly engaged in the Aerostat (controlled airships, moored boat, tethered balloon), inertia (inertial measurement unit, position and orientation equipment, optical inertial), missile ground ancillary products (checkout-launch-control devices, power), development and production.
Institute has the military product quality system certification, the weaponry and equipment research and production license, the weapons and equipment of equivalent units, qualifications and national defense test / Secondary metering station calibration laboratory, defense industry, the people's Liberation Army General armament Department equipment eligible equivalent units and high-tech enterprises in Hunan province.
In order to overcome technical challenges, CASIC established a new research institute in 2005 dedicated to the design, development, and manufacturing of near-space, lighter-than-air flight vehicles for surveillance purposes. Known as the the “068 Base Near-space Flight Vehicle R&D Center” and located in Hunan Province, its initial projects include the JK–5, JK–12, and JKZ–20 airships. The 068 Base has a cooperative R&D program with Russian counterparts for upper atmospheric airship control systems.
0-68 base (also known as the Space Administration and Aerospace Corporation of Hunan of Hunan), affiliated to the China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation, was established in 1970, was approved by Premier Zhou Enlai personally approved the establishment of a system of scientific research and production of military products wire base, Hunan province, site of the original shaoyangdiqu. After engineering headquarters, seventh machine industry Bureau of Hunan province, Hunan Authority Ministry of aerospace industry, aviation and aerospace industry authority, China Aerospace Industry Corporation in Hunan Aerospace authority in Hunan, China Aerospace Electromechanical Group Hunan Aerospace authority, the historical evolution of China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation's space authority. In 1993, the base relocated to Changsha, Hunan province.
Relocation of nearly 20 years, bases in countries invest less, with no prescriptive model of the task, the historical burden, develop self-reliance, hard work, despite the difficulties, the glorious tradition of hard work, based on space, market-oriented, gradually developed into an army, for the people, three births combined with comprehensive research and production base.
Currently, base has 9 home full funding and the holdings company, and 4 home shares company; has total assets 1.94 billion yuan, 2012 achieved business income 1.51 billion yuan; existing in-service workers near 4000 people, which various professional technicians more than 1300 over people, aerospace Fund Award 9 people, State special allowance expert 18 people; products cover floating empty players, and inertia products, and radar days feed, and missile ground supporting products, and magnetic materials and devices, and microwave devices, and satellite application, and metal composite base material, and equipment and manufacturing, and Paper packaging and so on.
The "Twelve-Five" period, 0-68 base will continue to take the road of civil-military integration, adhere to scientific and technological innovation, stronger Aerostat, advanced materials, information, products and three major industries of precision equipment, speeding up system innovation, promoting the reform of institutional mechanisms, the transformation of economic growth mode, to achieve base's rapid economic development.
0-68 base's history is the history of self-reliance, hard work, is the history of the times, forge ahead in unity, is a history of innovation and pioneering. In November 1968, the seventh machine building industry (hereinafter referred to as the seven machines) junguanhui approved establishment below third-tier base project headquarters, known as the 0 68 project headquarters, overall responsibility for the base preparations.
On June 18, 1970, Chou en-Lai issued instructions of the State Council and the Central Military Commission on XX cables, setting up the three bases in longhui County in Hunan province, some parts of holes and Xinhua County, Shaoyang and, beginning the prelude to 0 qiangjian 68 works. In 1978, the seven Department of Hunan province, in consultation with provincial consent, set up a seventh machine industry Bureau of Hunan province, for institutions at the provincial level, centralized provincial workers.
In 1979, as a strategic adjustment of national economic and defense construction, 0-68 base unit is listed as stopped huanjian. In 1982, the seventh in Hunan machinery industry Bureau was renamed the aerospace industry authority in Hunan province. In 1984, 0-68 base was declared a national relocation of a three-wire system to adjust one of the moved from shaoyangdiqu to zenith in wangcheng County township (now, yuelu district, Changsha), quickly set off changes in base relocation, second wave.
In 1986, the Changsha site construction begun work. In 1988, the completion of the construction of the new premises. 1989-1993 General relocated to Changsha, Hunan province. In 1992, the original approved the establishment of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics 7801 Institute (also known as the Hunan Institute of aerospace equipment and specialty materials), Al Qaeda assume military General Institute. 0 68 bases relied on self-reliance, hard work, achieve overall move, began "writing history, pioneering footprint" wave.
Is about to bid farewell to the 20th century, entered the crucial moment of the new century, and base leadership situation, determined to seize the opportunity, accelerate the development of important decisions.
1993-2003, the group, with strong support from local government, gripped the country of opportunities for military enterprises preferential policies out, three heavy, serious loss-making enterprises to implement the overall bankruptcy, a breakthrough live barriers of State-owned enterprises, creating conditions for accelerated development. In 1999, seize the opportunities arising from the national defence industry restructuring, self-funded research inertial measurement unit (IMU for short).
In 2003, the China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation approved the establishment of the Institute for magnetic materials, magnetic materials testing center established. In 2004, the inertial measurement unit into batch production, marks 0-68 base in military products research and production turn over a new leaf. In 2005, the China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation approved the establishment of space near space vehicle research and Development Center in Hunan province.
In 2006, the base near space aerocraft Research Center developed independently by XX-controlled airship were successfully tested at the changde airport. In 2007, the Hunan provincial government and the China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement, the two sides will in the city of Changsha Hunan aerospace industry, building, for rapid development of bases composing a new chapter of history.
On June 17, 2009, the base and signed a land acquisition agreement in wangcheng County economic development zone, wangcheng County economic development zone total of more than 320 acres of land requisition in the construction and aerospace, high-tech industrial park, creating industrial clusters of high-tech materials to become industry leaders.
In 2012, the bases a moored boat pick-up liftoff simulation tests a complete success, filling the China Aerospace Science and industry Corporation in the field of large Aerostat blank. "Twelve-Five", 0, 68 bases based on industrial development plan of China Aerospace Corporation, at that time, create the three pillars of industry: floating air mainly in near space aerocraft industries. with optical inertial information technology as the core technology and equipment industries. dominated by magnetic materials new materials.
