Europe's Ariane-1 is the brainchild of French, German, Italian and British scientists and engineers, and is the first ESA's independently developed launch vehicle. It formed the basis for future Ariane rockets, namely Ariane II, III and IV, which share a lot of commonality with this first variant. It is able to put about 4.8t into LEO, or 1.8t into GTO.
