The Atlas V rocket with its heaviest ever payload onboard lifted off on April 28, 2025, at 19:01 EDT from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. To accommodate the huge payload, ULA flew its Atlas V rocket in its most powerful configuration with five solid rocket boosters needed in addition to its main one.

Just some panels sliding closed – working similarly to modern flaps and slats on every commercial airliner. The aircraft also has twin-boom vertical stabilizers to the rear and a monocoque cabin that can accommodate up to six passengers, plus the operating pilot. No complex rotating nacelles/motors. No huge tilting wings.

As a result, it creates induced thrust at the wingtips rather than induced drag. Lesser weight only contributes to better performance, like increased payload capacity and improved fuel efficiency. The Concorde, though civilian, showcased a delta-wing tailless layout in a supersonic airliner.
