Four Russian -made rocket engines are on their way to NASA . The high-tech RD-180 boosters weigh over 5 tons.
They are considered heavyweights in the engine world and will serve as boosters for the Atlas space rockets . (Atlas Rockets transport satellites to
space)
One of the largest planes in the world (the Ruslan) has been chosen to deliver the giant engines to the United States.
The sheer size and weight of the engines would make it nearly impossible for any other plane to handle. The Ruslan is usually used to transport locomotives.
This scenario is not a new one. The deal for Russia to supply engines to the United States was signed in the 1990s.
Now, after 10 years, Russia has supplied the United States with 50 rocket engines.
( In the deal between the two, Russia is supposed to supply the US with a total of 101 rockets )
Initially, General Dynamics Space Systems Division (later purchased by Lockheed Martin) acquired the rights to use the RD-180 in the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) and Atlas program.
All production to date has taken place in Russia. The engine is currently sold by a joint venture between the Russian developer and producer of the engine NPO Energomash and Pratt&Whitney, called RD AMROSS.
Russia ships rocket engines to US

If no then please shut the eff up and mind your own business [if you have any].For all the money the India spend on weapons, can someone from India enlighten me on how much of it goes to the swiss bank account of the Indian politicians? About 10%, 20% 50% of the total purchase?

WTF? Have you even once looked at what the Russians/Soviet rockets and their space agency has achieved in it's glorious history. I guess not. First learn, understand and respect what they have achieved. But, you simply won't understand it. You don't even have a proper space agency let alone a rocket that can put something useful into the orbit and here you are insulting a Nation which has unparalleled records in matters related to space.
