Huolongchushui (fire dragon issuing from the water; Chinese: 火龙出水; pinyin: huolóngchushui; lit. fire dragon out of water) were the earliest form of multistage rockets and ballistic missiles used in post-classical China. The name of the weapon was used to strike fear into enemy troops. If the enemy was out of range, the fire dragon had a contingency: a magazine of three rocket driven arrows located within the mouth of the missile. It acted as one of the world's earliest multistage rockets and ballistic missiles, and was fired at enemy ships in naval battles.

  • 火龍出水是明朝於14世紀發明的一種新式火箭,是中國古代於海陸兩­用的火箭,為當時世界上最先進的遠程二級火箭,亦為二級火箭始祖。近代航天的多級火箭就是根據同樣原理所製成的,因此英國學者李約瑟認為明代的火龍出水是阿波羅登月火箭的祖先。歐洲到了16世紀以後才有二級及三級火箭的構想,實用的多級火箭更在20世紀才出現。 (zh)
