On June 17, 2026, Arianespace will place into orbit 36 satellites for Amazon Leo with the Ariane 64 equipped with four P160C advanced solid-propellant boosters for the very first time. Amazon Leo is Amazon’s low Earth orbit satellite network, whose mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers beyond the reach of existing networks. Designated VA269 by Arianespace and LE-03 (Leo Europe 03) by Amazon, it will be the third launch for the constellation performed with the European heavy-lift launcher in a row. With 36 satellites on board – 4 more than on the previous missions VA267 LE-01 and VA268 LE-02, this launch will demonstrate the launcher’s versatility and enhanced performance, enabling the deployment of the heaviest payload ever launched by an Ariane launcher. ► Subscribe to our channel to keep on touch on our futur contents:    / arianespace   ► Arianespace is the world’s leading satellite launch company.
