Can you name a rocket program that was delivered ahead of schedule? I'm not aware of one that exists.

  The first moon landing? Kennedy wanted it done before the end of the decade and they landed in 1969. I guess you could argue that it was on schedule rather than ahead.

    Their actual internal deadlines were significantly missed

      Moving the goalposts. They hit the deadline that mattered.

    Kennedy's speech is hardly "a schedule". There were definitely delays in the Apollo project, like the Apollo 4 launch that was delayed by (almost?) a year.
