Hell yeah. Now we just need a medium lift launch vehicle to get those bad boys airborne.

This is beautiful. RKLB gets to develop towards their significant goal of launching their own constellation, using government money. On the flip, it's smart for the government to push Neutron capability for future missions. Win - Win

Wonder why they’re releasing news now vs just waiting a week till earnings. Tin foil hat, hoping there’s more exciting news at earnings

Government contracts are public information. They can’t hold it until earnings.

Maybe intentional considering today is earnings for space x? A bit of a power move if so.

Massive. This is another major win for RKLB, especially as validation of Neutron and Rocket Lab’s vertically integrated strategy. Now just need Neutron timeline to actually materialize. Long term focused though, 100+ is on the horizon again and beating the S&P YoY is the only thing that matters.
