Anticipated payload to Low-Earth Orbit is stated as 1,080kg, while payload to Sun-Synchronous Orbit would be 540kg. The first-stage will use five TEPREL-C engines, while the second-stage will use a single vacuum-optimized TEPREL-C engine; both are kerolox engines. An additional kick-stage may also be made available in the final configuration.
The launcher completed a drop-test, landing in the water to validate recovery procedures. The launcher was originally named 'Arion 2'.
Development continues, with first flight anticipated in 2025. Drop-tests have been completed to validate parachute recovery.
