SpaceX received seven of the nine launches in fiscal year 2025 for the NSSL Phase 3 Lane 2 contracts awarded last week, with ULA getting the other two. Industry sources said two of the SpaceX launches, a pair of NRO missions, werre originally assigned to ULA but moved to SpaceX due to ongoing construction and upgrades at ULA's West Coast launch facility for its Vulcan rocket.
