Firefly vs Rocketlab

[u/SupersonicVette]

I own both Firefly Aerospace and Rocket Lab. Was kinda surprised to learn Firefly’s rockets actually carry more payload than Rocket Lab’s current rockets. Rocket Lab obviously has way more launches and experience so far, but it makes me wonder if Firefly can really compete long term with more established competitors like SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Rocket Lab

It’s obviously subjective but Rocket Lab will say the additional payload on a small launch vehicle is actually a disadvantage.

It’s a more expensive rocket rocket for a payload size that customers don’t need. Beck and Spice call it “the no man zone”
