[1.12] KSP-RO - Realism Overhaul [16 May 2022]
winged replied to Theysen's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
@hypervelocity It seems like Aestus II config was removed before release of RO v.11.5.1 and it was added once again few days later (so it doesn't exist in the latest release) https://github.com/KSP-RO/RealismOverhaul/blob/master/GameData/RealismOverhaul/Engine_Configs/Aestus_Config.cfg- 2,214 replies

Bell 8096L - FASA, stock. Aestus II - it seems like it was accidentally removed, you have to ask here: https://github.com/KSP-RO/RealismOverhaul/issues -
Why aren't turbo fan/jet engines used as boosters?
winged replied to JucheJuiceMan's topic in Science & Spaceflight
10-15 km? Not gonna happen because jet engines siginificantly lose thrust with altitude - so after just few kilometers TWR will drop below 1. Why bother with this if you can launch a rocket from airplane at 10-12 km of altitude and 250 m/s of horizontal velocity? Or even better: you can build reusable rocket stage. -
P-47 Turbobolt - Thunderbolt with a jet engine (slowest jest I've ever created with a top speed of only 840 km/h) XB-70 "RAPIER" - Valkyrie with 6 RAPIER engines - fastest and highest flying jet I've ever created MiG-21 + J-58 engine - fastest climbing jet (0-3000 m), fastest at sea level and with altitude record of 64,8 km using zoom climb method: https://imgur.com/a/usDMP

Switch to Bell 8096L. It's has higher isp and you can use lighter tanks. -

Mobile Lunar Laboratory - RP-0 https://imgur.com/a/sSMZA MOLAB is a project aimed at establishing a mobile base on the Moon. The base will have a laboratory that will enable kerbonauts to collect more science points and its mobility will allow them to collect points from different biomes. The base and crew will be transported to the surface of the Moon by reusable nuclear tug. Each time NTR will be refueled before the flight. The tanker will fly with the crew and will be reusable as well. Each manned flight will deliver 5 crew members and 190 days of supplies to the Moon's surface. -

My version is not 100% accurate. I've used RD270-M engines which run on pentaborane and RD-0120 as a third stage. Few interplanetary missions which I did in career mod. Sorry for lack of descriptions: Jupiter Multiple-Flyby Mission (1960-1966) https://imgur.com/a/nOFxN Triton orbiter (1969-1980) https://imgur.com/a/gdfeH Ganymede lander (1977-1980) https://imgur.com/a/HNeER Saturn Multiple-Flyby mission + Ttian lander (1987-1993) https://imgur.com/a/5ibk7 -

Perun - an air-launched rocket capable of carrying small payloads of up to 1050 kilograms into Low Earth Orbit . The vehicle consists of kerolox powered first stage and upper stage powered by hypergolic engine. First stage has wings and a tail to provide lift and attitude control while in the atmosphere. -

Kerb-Flyer I - my own idea of how the beginnings of kerbal aviation could look like: 900 kg of weight, only 1 kN of thrust at takeoff , top speed - 33 m/s (120 km/h) With very low terminal velocity (50 m/s), Kerb-Flyer i could function as a braking parachute rather than actual plane. Triple tail inspired by Lockheed Constellation Republic XP-72 Fictional MiG-R - fictional plane designed to brake speed record for a propeller driven aircraft. MiG-R is equipped with one or two R-4360 engines, depending on the version. Two-engined version achieved 280 m/s (mach 0,799) at sea level.

I didn't make those configs, I also don't see any sources for that values, maybe they were just guessed.

Eurofighter Typhoon cockpit with additional intake at the bottom to make it look more like F-16.

Yes, but other B9 parts are fine and they shouldn't be listed under the REWORK category - I created RO support for more than 95% of B9 parts but I left them in REWORK category due to my stupidity (I really didn't know what this category means), They should be moved to "suggested" category. @hypervelocity I've created RO-replica of Skylon and my biggest problem with Sabre engines was that their performance in jet mode was simply not enough to reach mach 5 speed. There were few other problems like mass ratio for shielded, cryogenic tanks ( they were too heavy to create SSTO with payload) or takeoff speed (200 m/s). It never made it into orbit but at least it's flyable and you can easily land with Shuttle-like speeds (100 m/s)

winged replied to Theysen's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
@Xaovin According to my experience for low TWR (1.20-1.40) it can be around 4800 - 5000 m/s and for very high TWR (more than 2.0) - 4000 m/s or less but in both cases you need proper ascent profile.- 2,214 replies
