ESA Phoenix, European Space Shuttle
Phoenix is the prototype of a European vehicle for reusable launchers and may even support manned space flight.
It can be flown atop the Ariane 5 or may be launched using other techniques.
The project is for non-military usages and will probably be part of ESAs next vehicle. (Phoenix was, besides Penelope and Ariane, originally suggested for the name of Ariane rocket family.)
