Next to the original Vega the difference is easy to see: a longer, thicker first stage and a larger fairing. Around 17 cm tall at 1:200, about 24 cm at 1:144.

Vega C is the successor to Europe’s Vega rocket: 34.8 m tall, with about 60 % more payload capacity. Its P120C first stage is the same solid motor that serves as a booster on Ariane 6. It first flew on 13 July 2022, failed on its second flight and returned to flight on 5 December 2024.
