The Launch Readiness Review (RAL) took place in Kourou on Wednesday September 26, 2012 and authorised count-down operations for the ASTRA 2F & GSAT-10 launch.
Arianespace will orbit two satellites on its fifth Ariane 5 launch of the year: Astra 2F, which mainly provides direct-to-home (DTH) broadcast services for the Luxembourg-based operator SES, and the GSAT-10 communications satellite for the Indian Space Research Organisation, ISRO. The choice of Arianespace by leading space communications operators and manufacturers is clear international recognition of the company's excellence in launch services. It will be launched from the Ariane launch complex N° 3 (ELA3), in Kourou, French Guiana.

The ARIANE 5 ECA Launcher Lift-Off for this flight is scheduled on September 21 to 22, 2012 as soon as possible within the following launch window:
