Malgré son succès et sa position dominante dans le domaine des lancements de satellites géostationnaires, Ariane 5 coûte cher à fabriquer et ses parts de marché sont menacées à moyen terme à la fois par l'évolution … Ariane 6 est un lanceur de moyenne à forte puissance (5 à 10,5 tonnes en orbite de transfert géostationnaire) que l'Agence spatiale européenne développe pour remplacer sa fusée lourde Ariane 5 à compter de 2020. Click on a date/time to view the file as it appeared at that time. This file contains additional information, probably added from the digital camera or scanner used to create or digitize it. Launch contracts are needed for the transitional period of 2020–2023 when the Ariane 5 will be phased out and gradually replaced by the Ariane 6.
Funding from several European governments was secured by early 2016, and contracts were signed to begin detailed design and the build of test articles. Ariane 6 comprises three stages: two or four strap-on boosters, a core stage and an upper stage. The performance requested for the new launch vehicle was 3–6.5 tonnes in equivalent geostationary transfer orbit (GTO), to cover both governmental and commercial needs. While in 2019, the maiden orbital flight had been planned for 2020, by May 2020, the planned initial launch date had been delayed until 2021.

The core stage with solid rocket boosters (SRBs) propels Ariane 6 in the first 10 minutes of flight to 200 km, delivering 135 tonnes of thrust in vacuum.

In response, ESA representatives said the agency was working on shifting the 2022 launch of the On 6 May 2019, Arianespace ordered the first production batch of 14 Ariane 6 rockets, for missions to be conducted between 2021 and 2023.The ESA ruling council approved the project moving forward on 3 November 2016, and the next and final step in funds being released is approval by the ESA Industrial Policy Council, expected 8 November 2016.In January 2020, the European Investment Bank, in partnership with the EC, made a €100 million loan to Arianespace drawing from the Horizon 2020 and Investment Plan for Europe corporate investment programmes. Additional thrust for the first stage will be provided by either two or four The first full-scale test of the ESR occurred at Kourou on 16 July 2018, and the test completed successfully with the thrust reaching 4,615 kN (1,037,000 lbAriane 6 was initially conceived in the early 2010s as a replacement launch vehicle for Ariane 5, and a number of concepts and high-level designs were suggested and proposed during 2012–2015. The proposal also included simplification of the industrial and institutional organisation along with a better and cheaper version of the Vulcain 2 engine for the main stage.The Italian, French and German space ministers met on 23 September 2014, in order to plan strategy and assess the possibility for agreement on funding for the Ariane 5 successor,In November 2015, an updated design of Ariane 64 and 62 was presented, with new nose cones on the boosters, main stage diameter increased to 5.4 metres (18 ft) and the height decreased to 60 metres (200 ft).The horizontal assembly process was inspired by the Russian tradition for The industrial production process was completely overhauled, allowing synchronized workflow between several European production sites moving at a monthly cadence, which would enable twelve launches per year, doubling Reorganisation of the industry behind a new launch vehicle, leading to a creation of In a January 2019 interview, Arianespace CEO Stéphane Israël said that the company requires four more institutional launches for Ariane 6 to sign a manufacturing contract. The 10 year loan's repayment is tied to the financial success of the Ariane 6 project.The first Ariane 6 launch contract was signed on 25 June 2015: an Illustration of the two Ariane 6 variants planned, A62 (left) and A64 (right) The objective of Ariane 6 is to maintain guaranteed autonomous access to space for Europe, while minimising exploitation costs and suppressing any support to exploitation.
