The use
of the Delta IV space launch vehicle will be discontinued in favor
of the Atlas V that uses the Russian made RD-180 rocket to launch US
national security payloads into space, United Launch Alliance (ULA)
President and Chief Executive Officer Tory Bruno said.
“Delta IV is entirely redundant to the Atlas V in terms
of its performance,” Bruno stated in a US House Armed Services
Committee hearing on space programs on Tuesday.
