This paper investigates Fano manifolds with condition \((*)\): every sequences of elementary contractions consists of rational homogeneous fibrations. In particular, any rational homogenous manifold satisfies \((*)\). Such kind of study is motivated by a conjecture of \textit{F. Campana} and \textit{T. Peternell} [Math. Ann. 289, No. 1, 169--187 (1991; Zbl 0729.14032)] on the characterization of rational homogenous manifolds: every Fano manifold with nef tangent bundle is a rational homogeneous manifold. This conjecture is studied by many people and is proved for \(n\)-folds of Picard number \(\rho>n-5\) by the author. On the other hand, Fano manifolds with condition \((*)\) and of Picard number \(\rho>n-5\) can be proved to be rational homogeneous manifolds, however, there is an example \(X_0\) due to \textit{G. Ottaviani} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 307, No. 1, 301--316 (1988; Zbl 0657.14006); Boll. Unione Mat. Ital., VII. Ser., A 4, No. 1, 87--100 (1990; Zbl 0722.14006)] which is a Fano 7-fold of Picard number 2 satisfying condition \((*)\) but not a rational homogeneous manifold. The main result of this paper states that if \(X\) is a Fano manifold with condition \((*)\) and of Picard number \(\rho>n-6\), then either it is a rational homogeneous manifold, or \(X\cong (\mathbb{P}^1)^{n-7}\times X_0\). As a corollary, if Campana-Peternell Conjecture is true for \(6\)-folds of Picard number \(1\), then it is true for \(n\)-folds of Picard number \(\rho>n-6\).
