AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoSpace & Defense Contracts: Avio (with MBDA in France) signed a €35m+ production order for solid rocket motors and aerodynamic surfaces for the ASTER 30 defense system, spanning four years and supporting Europe’s SAMP/T NG anti-missile demand. Ariane 6 Launch From Kourou: Arianespace completed Ariane 6 VA269 from French Guiana using upgraded P160C boosters, deploying 36 Amazon Leo broadband satellites into low Earth orbit—Ariane’s heaviest payload to date. Booster Upgrade Impact: The P160C upgrade (more propellant, longer booster, longer burn) boosted Ariane 64’s LEO capacity by roughly 10%, enabling four extra satellites versus earlier Amazon Leo flights. Amazon Leo Rollout & Regulation: Amazon says hundreds of satellites are ready in Florida while the FCC granted a limited, conditional waiver tied to deployment milestones; with VA269, Amazon Leo has reached 100 satellites in orbit in under five months. Energy & Sponsorship Scrutiny: A study highlights how fossil fuel firms, including Petrobras, use “fair energy transition” sponsorship and advertising to secure social license while oil exploration spending remains dominant.
