How about a flight where the engines work correctly or they at least reach the planned orbit on schedule before they start touting to be the best.

They made their end-game milestones. Lose and engine and delay the orbit beats what Nasa does. Like just blowing up.

Oh yeah, Nasa doesn't actually have a way to orbit with something that can be man-rated anymore. They spent all their money on theoretical studies instead of hardware.

Have they had any failures as bad as these yet?

Early U.S. rocket and space launch failures and explosion

Numerous US Launch Failures
