Rocket Lab launched 12 Electron rockets in 2025 and plans additional missions from Virginia and New Zealand. The company is racing to field its medium-lift Neutron rocket before year-end on an ambitious timeline that requires hitting all development milestones. Neutron can lift nearly 28,000 pounds, enabling larger satellite constellations and national security missions. Rocket Lab is already building satellites for missile defense and broadband, positioning the firm for space-defense infrastructure work. Successful Neutron flights are central to the company’s long-term strategy and its ability to compete with larger launch providers.
