Ссылочкой на носитель в этих пусках не поделитесь?

На эти спутники ещё даже не изготовили комплекты полезной нагрузки. Последний 22-й торжественно отправили заказчику:

Это полностью всё меняет? Эти спутники не будут запущены до 2020 года?

Это говорит о том, что запускать их будет любой, кто предложит наивыгоднейшие условия. Даже Маску может обломиться, контракт на один GPS у него уже есть. Самые высокие шансы у Ариан четвёркой, самые низкие (с учётом политической составляющей) - у Союза с Куру.

Вывод ошибочный. Запускать эти аппараты может далеко не "любой". Именно по этой причине еще годы назад "пролетели" варианты с РН, которыми можно было бы выводить еще дешевле, чем "Союзами" из Куру.

В любом случае, в первую очередь "продавливать" будут именно Ариан.  Союз - вариант для подстраховки, если возникнут проблемы с выведением четвёрками. Не так ?

Не стану утверждать ничего на этот счет. Вам тем более не стоит

[Разъём]

Есть опция на еще одну пару где-то в 2019

У Ариан есть один неустранимый недостаток, как и у Протона: не всегда все четыре спутника нужны в одной плоскости.

Ну почему же неустранимый. У Ариан-62 этого недостатка уже не будет.

Fregat is fueled in Arianespace's FCube facility for Soyuz Flight VS15

At the Spaceport, the Fregat upper stage for Soyuz Flight VS15 is transferred by road fr om the FCube facility – wh ere it was fueled – to the S3B clean room.

Arianespace's new Spaceport processing facility has fueled another Fregat stage. This upper stage for the medium-lift Soyuz launcher will be used for the May 24 flight from French Guiana with two European Galileo navigation satellites.
                            
Named the FCube (Fregat Fueling Facility), the purpose-built installation is utilized to "top off" Fregat upper stages during Soyuz launch campaigns at the Spaceport. In service since last year, the FCube supports Arianespace's sustained launch pace – giving the company greater flexibility in managing its mission manifest, while also increasing launch capacity with Soyuz and its other launch vehicle family members: the heavy-lift Ariane 5 and lightweight Vega.
Fregat upper stages are produced by NPO Lavochkin, a company that is part of the Soyuz launcher's Russian industrial team. Fregat serves as an autonomous upper stage enabling Soyuz to perform a full range of missions. During its processing in the FCube facility, Fregat was fueled with UDMH (unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine) and NTO (nitrogen tetroxide) storable propellants that are loaded into spherical tanks.
After its fueling in the FCube, the Fregat for Arianespace's Flight VS15 was transferred by road to the Spaceport's S3B clean room. At this facility, the upper stage will be integrated with passengers for this month's Soyuz mission: the latest two Galileo Full Operational Capability (FOC) spacecraft for Europe's satellite-based navigation system. This will create the "upper composite," which is protected by a payload fairing during the initial phase of flight through the atmosphere.

 

Fregat will deliver the Galileo satellites to a circular orbit

For Arianespace's May 24 mission, Fregat will perform a first burn, followed by a 3-plus hour ballistic phase. The Fregat will ignite its engine again to reach the circular orbit for separation of the two Galileo spacecraft – which will enter Orbital Plane A of the navigation satellite constellation.
Galileo's FOC phase is funded and managed by the European Commission, which has designated the European Space Agency as the system's design and procurement agent. OHB System in Bremen, Germany, is prime contractor, producing the Galileo FOC satellites. The satellites' navigation system is supplied by UK-based Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL), which is 99% owned by Airbus Defence and Space.
Flight VS15 is one of up to 12 Arianespace missions targeted for 2016 with the company's complete launcher family. So far this year, Arianespace has performed three launches: two with Ariane 5, and one utilizing Soyuz.

Soyuz' "upper composite" is ready for next week's Arianespace dual-satellite Galileo mission

The payload assembly process is now complete for Arianespace's medium-lift Soyuz flight on May 24 fr om French Guiana, which is to orbit the 13th and 14th Full Operational Capability (FOC) satellites at the service of Europe's Galileo navigation system.

Installed atop Soyuz' Fregat upper stage, the two Galileo FOC satellites and their dispenser system are shown partially encapsulated by the two-piece protective payload fairing.
 
Performed yesterday in the Spaceport's S3B clean room facility, these preparations involved encapsulation of the two Galileo spacecraft and their dispenser system – which had been installed atop Soyuz' Fregat upper stage the previous day. The encapsulation was carried out using a two-piece Soyuz-ST payload fairing, and was followed by the addition of mission logos.
This completed unit, called the "upper composite," will be mated atop Soyuz after the workhorse vehicle's rollout tomorrow from the MIK integration building – wh ere launcher assembly is handled – to the ELS launch zone.

 

Soyuz' latest mission for Europe

Scheduled for liftoff on May 24 at precisely 5:48:43 a.m. local time in French Guiana, Soyuz will carry out a nearly 3-hr., 48-min. mission from launch to separation of the two passengers.
Galileo is Europe's initiative for satellite navigation. Its complete operational and ground structure will be deployed during the FOC phase, which is managed and funded by the European Commission, with the European Space Agency (ESA) delegated as the design and procurement agent on the Commission's behalf.
Prime contractor OHB System in Bremen, Germany produced the satellites, and their onboard payloads are supplied by UK-based Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL) – which is 99-percent owned by Airbus Defence and Space.

Soyuz reaches the launch zone for next week's Arianespace mission with Galileo satellites

Soyuz reaches the launch zone for next week's Arianespace mission with Galileo satellites                         
 Arianespace's medium-lift Soyuz is "standing tall" in French Guiana – and ready for payload integration – following its transfer to the workhorse vehicle's dedicated Spaceport launch complex earlier today.                           
                         
                            
With this rollout and the basic three-stage vehicle's subsequent vertical positioning over its launch pad, Soyuz marked another key step toward Arianespace's May 24 mission – which is to orbit the latest two FOC (Full Operational Capability) satellites for Europe's Galileo space-based navigation system.
In procedures that have become familiar at the Spaceport, Soyuz was moved via a transport/erector rail car in a horizontal-transfer process fr om the MIK launcher assembly facility to the ELS launch zone. Once over the launch pad, the vehicle was erected into a vertical orientation, wh ere it is suspended in place by four large support arms.
Following this step's completion, the mobile gantry was moved into position over the launcher – providing protection for the upcoming installation of Soyuz' "upper composite," which consists of the Galileo spacecraft and their dispenser system, plus the Fregat upper stage and payload fairing.

 

Supporting Europe's Galileo program

The May 24 flight's two passengers – built by OHB System, with Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. supplying their navigation payloads – are the 13th and 14th FOC satellites in the Galileo program, which is creating a European-operated space-based navigation system.
Galileo's FOC phase – during which the network's complete operational and ground infrastructure will be deployed – is managed and funded by the European Commission. The European Space Agency has been delegated as the design and procurement agent on the Commission's behalf.
Designated VS15 in Arianespace's numbering system, next week's mission is scheduled to lift off at precisely 5:48:43 a.m. a.m. local time in French Guiana, with its Galileo satellite passengers to be deployed into a targeted circular orbit during a flight lasting approximately 3 hrs., 47 min.

Watch the launch of Galileo-13/14
 
 Europe takes its next step in creating its own navigation satellite constellation on Tuesday 24 May, with the launch of the 13th and 14th Galileo satellites.
 
 The pair is scheduled to lift off at 08:48:43 GMT (05:48:43 local time, 10:48:43 CEST) on 24 May from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana atop a Soyuz launcher.

 The first three stages of the Soyuz rocket take the Galileo satellites and their Fregat upper stage into low orbit just short of nine minutes after liftoff. Then the reignitable Fregat, as much a spacecraft as a rocket stage, then takes over the task of hauling the satellites higher through a pair of burns.
 The satellites will be released in opposite directions by their dispenser once they reach their target 22 522 km-altitude orbit at 3 h 48 min after launch.

 Streaming begins at 08:28 GMT (10:28 CEST) on 24  May for the liftoff, then resumes at 12:23 GMT (14:23 CEST) to cover the satellites' separation.

Одобрен пуск Союза 24 мая 2016 г.
http://www.arianespace.com/mission-update/arianespaces-soyuz-is-approved-for-its-early-morning-liftoff-on-may-24/

Soyuz                                        May 23, 2016                          
    Arianespace's Soyuz is approved for its early morning liftoff on May 24                         
    The Arianespace Soyuz mission that will further expand Europe's Galileo satellite navigation constellation has been authorized for tomorrow's launch from the Spaceport in French Guiana.                        
                         
                            

Soyuz has been cleared for Arianespace's May 24 liftoff with the latest two Galileo FOC (Full Operational Capability) satellites, which are contained in the "upper composite" – shown here during its integration atop the launcher.

 Approval for the early morning liftoff was given at the conclusion of today's Launch Readiness Review, which verified the "go" status of Soyuz, its two Galileo satellite passengers, the Spaceport's infrastructure and the network of downrange tracking stations.

The May 24 mission – designated VS15 in Arianespace's numbering system – will be performed from the Spaceport's purpose-built ELS launch facility for Soyuz. Liftoff is scheduled at precisely 5:48:43 a.m. local time in French Guiana, with the two Galileo spacecraft to be deployed during a flight sequence lasting approximately 3 hrs., 47 min.

Produced by OHB System, these relay platforms – which are the European constellation's 13th and 14th satellites for launch – weigh an estimated 714 kg. each and will operate in medium-Earth orbit. Their navigation payloads were supplied by Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd., which is 99-percent owned by Airbus Defence and Space.

The Galileo navigation system provides highly accurate global positioning services under civilian control. The European Commission is funding and managing its FOC (Full Operational Capability) phase, during which the network's complete operational and ground infrastructure will be deployed; with the European Space Agency designated as the system's design and procurement agent.

Tomorrow's launch will be the 15th mission from French Guiana for Arianespace's medium-lift Soyuz, as well as the company's fourth flight in 2016 with its three-vehicle launcher family – which is completed by the heavy-lift Ariane 5 and lightweight Vega.
