How is this fair? Sure DOD and NASA are customers but SpaceX financed their advancements and had to convince the US government to use their platform with successful launches.
This sounds similar to Airbus's support. Why is this allowed. US intelligence should be sabotaging these free market cheaters. Europe is acting like China, where the government is financially supporting major industries competing with the US. I will call it what it is. Economic Warfare. Maybe more aptly Economic Welfare Warfare.
