Outer space

From Russia, with thrust

The United States depends on space to conduct nearly all of its military operations. Yet since 2000, we have unwisely relied on Russian rocket engines for a large part of our national security space launches. The U.S. Air Force manages these launches through the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) Program, and they initially selected Boeing and Lockheed Martin to provide these capabilities.
