[ANY] BNTR - Bi-operational Nuclear Thermal Rocket

[Xyphos]

MM Patch to clone the Stock LV-N engine and adds a second mode of operation that uses an oxidizer-injected afterburner for more thrust in atmospheric environments at the expense of ISP.
I've tried to balance this engine as much as possible by adding a little more mass, and greatly reduced ISP in OxAug mode to that of an RCS thruster.
It cannot make it to orbit under it's own power, but can be ran in asparagus staging and/or with boosters to help it get there.

Special thanks to: @Mecripp and @sebi.zzr for their help and contribution.

This is awesome.

If this is only a MM patch, without any other assets, would you consider adding this to the Community Database of ModuleManager Patches? It's a great way of making the option available to a larger audience.
