Fairly Realistic Historical Craft (FRHC)


Recommended Posts

Inspired by various other versions of historical craft, I have started to create some.

All craft are designed for RSS/RO using SFJackBauer's RealEngines config. You will need the "Requires" list of mods from Realism Overhaul (including RO itself...) as well as FASA (with the Real FASA patch), Procedural Wings and Procedural Fairings at a minimum, any other required mods will be listed with each craft.

Disclaimer: These are "Fairly Realistic", i.e. performance/design may not quite match real life. Even with the wonderful work of NathanKell, SFJackBauer, Frizzank et al there just isn't the information out there that I could find to get all the fuel masses correct, nor all the engines. I've often just made adjustments to the tech level and thrust limit of the available engines to simulate something similar. I also don't have the time/inclination/skill to start modding parts myself. They should all hopefully "feel" about right though.

I have no idea how far through history I will get, but here goes:

Hermes B-1 - I cannot find a suitable ramjet engine...

Viking (1-7) - This one may take a little bit of assembly in the VAB as whenever I load it the engine and shroud above it are partway up the tank. To assemble correctly: 1) move the whole craft up a bit, 2) take the shroud above the engine off, 3) move the shroud/fairing base so that the top node (the one at the top of the blue lines) attaches to the bottom of the tank, 4) re-attach the shroud. - https://www.dropbox.com/s/sysaruh9y5kv4km/FRHC%20Viking%20%281-7%29.craft
