Is this realistic? Doesn't the development timelines for a new large rocket stretch into more than a decade? Unless someone else had one under development...

Could this just be a pressure tactic on SpaceX?

This contract isn’t for launch - that will be SLS (in theory) - rather for the lander.

Which highlights how unserious this whole thing is. SLS hardly works and is way behind schedule.
