My Big Jet is set to 110 wtf !!


Recommended Posts

If I recall correctly, it is FAR. FAR nerfs the jet engines to be more in-line with the way a real jet is supposed to work, but as I understand they are still quite off. It will still get you to space, though...just maybe takes a little longer.

edit: Or is it KIDS? It's one of the two, can't quite remember which now.

The stock jets have insanely high thrust because the stock atmosphere is a soup. Since FAR gives you realistic drag, the jets' thrusts are lowered to match.

They still *far* outperform real jets, because they're still modeled as rockets (KSP don't actually model jets, just airbreathing rockets) so thrust does not decrease with air density. Also they're ~16x as fuel efficient as they should be, since due to another bug, IntakeAir is included in Isp calculatons.
