Boeing you listing?Doesn't Boeing makes the fairing and abstract the vehicle interface so it has no ITAR issues? Don't they use TDRS for range, and thus depend on being an US company?I guess they could adapt the Land Launch fairing, and switch to Lutch, but I believe the Lutch data hole is exactly on the easter Pacific.

The Russian far east coast makes much more sense, as the platform has to travel to the equator for launch..

It is also been mentioned that the major upgrades underway/in works for entire launcher are in part to reduce heavy reliance on Proton-M and Angara by providing a form of redundancy.
