How is this any different that General Dynamics building the Atlas rockets back in the sixties?

The government told them what they needed and a private company designed it to their specifications.

The only real difference seems to be that instead of selling the final product to the government they are going to operate it and sell their services. They are basically Uber instead of Ford.
