Exclusive: U.S. Air Force eyes 28 launches, shared investment for next
rockets
The U.S. Air Force may kick off a multibillion-dollar
competition for 28 launches of government satellites this spring to help end
U.S. reliance on Russian-built rocket engines, according to an Air Force
document seen by Reuters on Friday.
The Air Force's Space and Missile Systems Center mapped
out the possible tender, which would include government and private sector
investment, in a request for information sent to selected companies on Feb. 18,
with responses due March 20.
