Soyuz Kourou Mobile Gantry
Workers put finishing touches on Soyuz launch pad
Kourou will be a great new capability for Russian spaceflight.
The French Guiana pad is the first Soyuz complex to use a mobile gantry. Soyuz facilities at Baikonur and the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in Russia do not have service towers because the rockets horizontally roll out to the pad fully assembled and ready for launch.
Ironic, that as some US launchers move to horizontal integration, and transport, (Delta IV & Falcon 9) Soyuz is moving to vertical integration.
