"FLOURINE RP-1!?"
Yes, we used that reaction. It really squeazed every g of thrust/mass ratio we could get out of the rocket. Efficiency is key, after all.

This rocket is built for the accurate and timely delivery of large-yield payloads, whether they be for missiles of war or for your next-system neighbor's lunchbox, that hog. Nah, kidding, he's a pretty cool feller. Unless he's not, then he can go bite Europa.

Other related stats:
Size: ~the size of a bicycle honker from what you'd read in the history books.
Thrust/Mass Ratio: 516gc (Couldn't top the base game's max of 560, but this is super cheap so we win.)
Actual Thrust: 5.94kN
Gimbal Range: 20 degrees
Gimbal Speed: 2980 RPM (2.98 kRPM)
Weight: 1.18 kg (2.6 pounds. Think of it as picking up a cat or something. A sensitive, combusting cat with regenerative cooling.)
Cost: 15.2c (The spaceship engineer's equivalent of a pack of Snicker's bars. We probably have Snicker's bars in the far-future, right?)

In that vein of thought, I'm working on a 2nd wave of thrusters using what I've learned to improve their efficiency, and by extension military application.

The best answer for that is "I'm not legally required to tell you I'm not a rocket scientist, but I'll bring that front and center anyways." I didn't read the help guides to understand that higher Exhaust Velocities are nicer, but the rockets all do their job of maneuvering planetary orbit so I was happy when I finished it and placed it on a craft.

The low mass and cost are admirable (so are the descriptions), but why do all your engines have such awful exhaust velocities?
