The head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, and the founder of SpaceX Elon Musk has shared to Twitter criticisms about the missiles Russia and the United States.
Friday, April 10, Rogozin said that Russia plans to reduce the cost of launch services by at least 30%. He said that the average price of a SpaceX launch is $60 million, but NASA overpaid for it in 1.5 – 4 times.
In response, Musk wrote that the missiles his company’s reusable for 80%, and Russian are not suitable for reuse.
Later Rogozin reacted to this remark. He noted that the Russian side does not need the instructions of the United States, and in a separate post hinted that the words Mask was cynical and hypocritical. In his opinion, American opponents are lobbying for sanctions against Russia, and when asked about the real price of launch services, they "begin to blush".
"this the cynicism and hypocrisy of our opponents. Instead of fair competition in the market of space launches, they lobby against us sanctions, and with impunity use the dumping", – said Rogozin.
