Vulcan Leo 1

Return to flight, on the first six-booster Vulcan, with 40 Amazon Leo satellites.

Planned Nov 13, 2026 Date set

Goal

  • Fly again after the February nozzle failure, with a redesigned booster nozzle.
  • Fly the most powerful version, VC6L, for the first time.

The plan

  1. The launch still needs range approval.
  2. The Space Force will look at this flight’s data before letting Vulcan carry national security satellites again.
