The telescope is composed by two optical systems: a compact on-axis F/5 Ritchey-Chrétien, with an aperture of 320 mm and a Back-End Optics, reshaping a defocused PSF on the detector. In this paper we describe how alignment and integration, as well as ground support equipment, realized on a demonstrator model at INAF Padova, evolved and were successfully applied during the AIV phase of the flight model telescope subsystem at LEONARDO, the Italian industrial prime contractor premises. | Acknowledgments: | CHEOPS activities in Italy are supported by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) - Contract ASI-INAF n. 2013-016-R.0 09/07/2013 and Contract ASI-Leonardo n.
