    I take anything RT has to say with a fairly large grain of salt. They were suggesting some time ago (not too long after Columbia) that Buran could “bail-out” NASA, whatever that was supposed to mean…

    And the 14-seater version that will supposedly be carried by Atlant has already been defunded/cancelled/whatever way to mothball a project is popular is Russia now, IIRC

    I agree. Might be just another group looking for funding. The vehicle looks a lot like Lynx. I put more confidence in XCOR. They seem to have solid funding now….
