Well the modern Saturn, the Aries won't be ready until 2020, for one, and they've already been working on it for some years.
On top of it, look how long it takes to get military programs from drawing board to deployment. Oft cases, it takes 20 years or more (some over 30)- and these are high priority systems that are far, far less expensive and complex.
Finally, it's government....
I have no doubt whatsoever that it would take at least as long as Apollo took. At least.
