Launch System Investment
Abstract
Invest in two or more launch service providers' new launch system development and/or upgrades to existing launch systems to provide two or more domestic, commercially-viable launch providers that also meet all NSS requirements, available by the end of FY2022. This investment utilizes Public Private Partnerships to enable the development of new/upgraded launch systems, including domestic Rocket Propulsion Systems (RPS), upper stages, main stages and launch infrastructure. These systems are required to sustain competition while ending the reliance on the Russian RD-180.
