Last I heard that it was postponed to 2022.

RD-180's are still in production and ULA buys batches each year for the Atlas-V.

>The point about my post was the RD-180 can never throttle low enough to land an Atlas V.

Aaah, now I get it. If you replaced the RD-180 with the RD-191, it should be able to because the RD-191 can throttle way lower than the RD-180 (47% VS 27% for the RD-191).

>If the Atlas V was much bigger and ran on say 7 RD-180's, it would be feasible.

I would swap them with RD-191's.

For me? The RD-180.
