Default NASA study favors Delta IV/Orion for economy

In sci.space.history David Spain wrote:
If you mean those Delta IV Heavy derivatives, note the notation at
the bottom which says 'new pad/infrastructure'. I read that as $$$,
worse than 'batteries not included'. Comments?


My peanut gallery intuition (such as it is) tends to agree and figures
it would become, effectively, Delta V.
