Did not have this on my bingo card. I thought Sierra was a tiny company.

Owning vehicles and rockets with an old space launch cadance and price is not being a SpaceX competitor.
The entire reason SpaceX is successful is that everything it has done from the X prize forward is based on rejecting that model.

What would buying ULA even accomplish? Government contracts most likely wouldn’t transfer over and there aren’t many Vulcans built as far as I’m aware. It seems overall most companies would be better off simply using an established launch provider than buying ULA.

Thumbs up to Sierra for doing everything to get and keep Dream Chaser flying! A manned version in 10 years would be awesome!!
