Wait for stronger evidence
- Why
- Strong, well-funded program with a qualified engine, qualified fairing/stage hardware, and real customer demand (5-launch deal exceeding its prior $190M record), but zero flight heritage and a history of slips make it premature to depend on for a mission.
- Next
- Track the Q1 2026 ship-to-Wallops/LC-3 milestone and the maiden flight outcome; re-evaluate only after at least one successful orbital flight (and ideally a successful booster recovery) before committing payload manifests.
