at least russian engines work good for others. russia itself cant launch anything anymore.

@yugozastava13 You want proof? Here goes. Russia says that to this day, we don´t have the technology to get there. That´s why they haven´t sent their cosmonauts to the moon. It was all staged by Hollywood´s best. Besides religion, the moonlanding is the greatest lie ever.

@StreetArtillery Proof?
-
@GloomyGonzales Not smart? We don't buy Russian engines because we can't produce them ourselves, we buy them from Russia because Russian companies don't pay their employees as much as American companies do, therefore making the price-per-unit lower than an American produced engine. It's freshman economics.
Also, the American space program always has been, and always will be lightyears ahead of the Russian program. Deal with it.

@datzfast Wake up, stupid American moron! Those times when the Russian space agency was underfunded by the government are gone long ago. USA buys these engines from Russia coz it can't produce itself such engines. Americans are not smart they are just arrogant stupid oil thirsty morons.

@frankyspeake we hire Russians today so they dont have to work in north Korea, Iran, etc. its not because they are smart, its because we are smart. dont fuck with me i make the decisions ass wipe.

RD 170

The real hope the US has at affordable flight right now is Falcon9. If spaceX can work out all the bugs, it should be half the price of Atlas V and man rated.

The Atlas 3 and 5 use the Russian RD 180 engine in it's first stage. A type of engine the U.S tried to build for many decades but failed to do so and gave up on it. After a visit to Russian rocket engine factory in the mid 90's they found out that the Russians used these type of engines already in the 60's!!

After this visit the U.S bought 101 RD 180 rocket engines. The Russian builder NPO Energomash
and Pratt& Wittney are in a joint venture building derivatives from this RD 180 engine.
