3 BACKGROUND Ariane 5 : 67 success in a row! Ariane 5, Soyouz and VEGA operational in Kourou and Arianespace maintaining its market share A rude competition with new technical and economical models Ariane 6 and Vega-C developments decided during the Luxembourg MC in December 2015 Airbus Safran Launcher (ASL) created in December 2014 A new governance for Ariane 6 development with design authority to industry. Ariane 6 and VEGA-C contracts signed in August Les Lanceurs Européens Colloque International 3-4 novembre 2015

4 ARIANE 6 KEY OBJECTIVES Guaranteed access to space for Europe Industry supporting the commercial risk Time-to-market : Maiden flight in 2020, Fully operational in 2023 Maximizing commonalities within the European launcher family Proven reliability to customers Family of launchers addressing both institutional and commercial markets Advanced launch service procurement for European institutional missions Half the costs of Ariane 5 per kg and target launch service prices for institutional missions Fast track development plan and simplified management rules for minimized decision time Vulcain main stage engine flight proven on Ariane 5 Vinci upper stage extensively ground tested Common Solid Rocket Motor P120C with Vega-C (implying specific organization) as extension of Vega flight proven P80 to be flight qualified in 2018 on Vega-C Progressive phasing in of Ariane 6 and phasing out of Ariane 5 4 Les Lanceurs Européens Colloque International 3-4 novembre 2015
