A little more perspective
The operator’s mission report identifies four solid boosters and the long fairing for this flight. I retain its approximately 62-meter total instead of treating every Ariane 6 configuration as the same height.
The two-booster Ariane 62 and shorter-fairing arrangements require separate configuration labels. This upright illustration measures the whole rocket from its lowest engine hardware to the fairing nose, excluding the launch table and tower.
