That brings up another little paper napkin design that has been
floating around : two four segment SRBs on a Delta IV Medium CBC,
attached from the thrust structure to the intertank segment, with an
SSME for primary propulsion. This would be the 'little Ariane V'

Yeah, us a RS-68 as its cheaper than a SSME.
