Can anyone list all the private Chinese LOX/RP-1 rocket engines

 

[skywatcher]

Launch startup Space Pioneer 110 tonne thrust LOX/RP-1 fueled engine TH-12 hot fire test in Jan 2024.

The engine will be used for the first stage of the Tianlong-3 liquid fueled rocket.
Tianlong-3 is a medium lift LOX/RP-1 rocket with a payload capacity of 17 tonne to LEO. Its maiden flight is slated for Sept 2024.
