Le lanceur européen Ariane 5 est le dernier né de la famille Ariane. L'étage principal du lanceur propulsé par le moteur cryotechnique Vulcain assure, pendant 9 minutes 30 secondes, l'essentiel de la mise en vitesse. Deux propulseurs à poudre géants, encadrant cet étage, fournissent 90 % de la poussée d’Ariane 5 au décollage et pendant les deux premières minutes de vol. [...] L'allumage délicat du moteur cryotechnique est effectué juste avant le décollage pour mieux contrôler l'opération. Cette innovation et d’autres améliorations permettent de porter le taux de fiabilité du lanceur à 98, 5 % contre 95 % pour les meilleurs lanceurs actuellement en compétition sur le marché. 3, record 1, French, - moteur%20cryog%C3%A9nique

Moteurs à gaz. Le moteur parent de la famille doit être sélectionné sur la base du critère primaire de la plus grande cylindrée. Lorsque ce critère primaire est commun à deux moteurs ou plus, le moteur parent doit être sélectionné au moyen du critère secondaire, et ce, dans l'ordre suivant : le débit de carburant le plus élevé par course au régime de la puissance nominale déclarée; l'avance à l'allumage la plus grande; le taux le plus faible de recyclage des gaz d’échappement; l'absence de pompe à air ou la pompe à débit d’air effectif le plus faible. 1, record 2, French, - pompe%20agitatrice%20%C3%A0%20d%C3%A9bit%20d%27air
