Nice SWERV


jounce

Recommended Posts

The SWERV engine has an ISP of 1450 in vacuum,and 300 in 1atm!In contrast,the Dart engine has also 300 ISP,but only 320 in vacuum.It also has a decent TWR.(when compared to NERV,the mass is multiplied by ~3,and thrust ~8)It can be used as an atmosphereical engine.

also ksp2 has a lot of awsome 5 m parts such as CBL500 and CN500,and AEFF500

and ZX10k

ALSO NUCLEAR REACTORS!!!

AND ANOTHER REACTION WHEEL AND ANOTHER PARACHUTE

KSP2 IS AWESOME IF THERE WEREN'T THAT MUCH KRAKENS

Where is the SWERV based on?

It's a gas core nuclear reactor/nuclear lightbulb. Basically the engine runs so hot that the uranium inside of it is gas, these higher tempature allow it to achieve much higher efficiencies.

I heard Scott Manley talking about this, cool.
