139 successful launches with a 100% success rate.
Yeah, gee, if only they'd do something.
I'm all for competition bringing down ULA's prices, however to pretend they haven't done anything to deserve contracts, is obscene.
- reddog 6y agoYou beat me to it. “Move fast and break things” isn’t the ethos your looking for when the payload cost billions.

It'll be interesting to see if Vulcan can also achieve 100% success rate, or whether they'll have the same toothing issues SpaceX and others have had.
