RO/RSS 1500 tn payload to LEO - Armageddon Rocket

[jrodriguez]

Hi all,

I'm glad to present this crazy rocket. It is much more massive than efficient, but if you want to conquer the Solar System with a 1500 tons spacecraft, then this your rocket

Some figures:

- More than 600.000kN of Thrust

- Close to 50.000 tons at Lift Off

- Size: 164m Height x 65m Width (bottom) / 17m Width (Top)

Stages

- First Stage + Boosters: 15xF1A(10m-46.000kN). Delta-v: 2023 m/s

- First Stage: 7xF1A(10m-46.000kN). Delta-v: 4118 m/s

- Second Stage: 7 x RocketDyne F1A/B(5.5M 9400kN). Delta-v: 3589 m/s

Total Delta-V = 9731 m/s

LEO at 220km*220km

I can only think of how fat it is...

Also, shouldn't this be in spacecraft exchange or something?

Yes,you are right. Maybe a moderator can change it to the proper section. I'm not sure if there is a way to move my own thread?

Moved by request.

But what is the payload?

[Flixxbeatz]

Good job for making it look aerodynamic. +999 internets for no pancake.

So huge, flying it through the air must create a hurricane somewhere over the ocean!

In this case is just payload for testing a procedural fuel cone with 1500 tons of propellant. But the main goal is to have a huge spaceship to do a proper mission to Mars and to return home

haha Yes, it doesn't look very aerodynamic. But because with RO there is no way to change the scale of the engines, I had to do something wide enough to fit the number of 10m F1 needed.

lol. Or maybe 4.5 Earthquake on Cape Canaveral.
