A comment on Watch the SpaceX Falcon Heavy Rocket Launch Today. Parent comment
McDonnell Douglas was a private company when they demonstrated the VTOL DC-X launcher in the 1990s. They just had DoD money to help.
DC-X didn't make it to orbit before the money ran out, sadly. The DC-Y was planned for that.
