Atlas V has conducted six Amazon Leo launches, Falcon 9 has conducted three, and Ariane 6 has conducted one.
Atlas V will return to the pad on May 22, 2026 for Leo Atlas 7 (LA-07).
After LA-07, only LA-08 will remain among the Amazon Leo Atlas V missions.
LA-06 is the second of four back-to-back Amazon Leo missions on Atlas V.
Atlas V has delivered 29 Amazon Leo satellites to low Earth orbit.
ULA launched the satellites on an Atlas V rocket from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida at 8:53 p.m. ET.
United Launch Alliance launched Amazon Leo LA-06 on Atlas V 551.
After LA-08, Atlas V will have six Starliner launches left.
The April 4 Atlas V mission was ULA’s second launch for Amazon in April.
United Launch Alliance has initiated the countdown for the launch of its sixth Atlas V 551 rocket for the Amazon Leo broadband constellation.
United Launch Alliance is using a streamlined roll-to-launch flow for the Atlas V mission supporting Amazon Leo.
Atlas V rolled from the Vertical Integration Facility to the pad at Space Launch Complex 41 with a 29-satellite Leo payload.
The LA-06 countdown includes rolling the 20-story Atlas V rocket from the Vertical Integration Facility to the pad, performing testing, loading propellant, and launching the mission over about 18 hours.
The Atlas V rollout to Space Launch Complex 41 occurred 23 days after Amazon Leo's last mission with United Launch Alliance.
Atlas V is on the pad at Cape Canaveral, Florida, for a launch scheduled at 8:52 p.m. ET on April 27, 2026.
The Atlas V Leo 6 launch visibility map marks PLF jettison at launch +60 seconds, booster separation at launch +210 seconds, solid rocket booster jettison, BECO, MES-1, and additional milestones through launch +390 seconds.
ULA's launch readiness review cleared prelaunch preparations for Atlas V's sixth Amazon Leo constellation mission.
ULA's early weather forecast for the Atlas V Amazon Leo 6 launch is 75% favorable.
Atlas V launch of Amazon Leo 6 is planned for Monday at 8:52 p.m. EDT, or 0052 UTC, from Cape Canaveral.
Atlas V received a payload of 29 satellites for the next United Launch Alliance mission for Amazon.
