Text/Data contradictions

edit

The individual stage and stacked rocket heights are contradicting between the article and the data page, the article dimensions are actually proportioned roughly like concept renders of the rocket and the volume adds up with the fuel masses in the stat page so I suspect the height in the stat page is wrong, is there any source on where those come from? 2003:ED:4705:2200:8C51:3EA6:1F8C:DF21 (talk) 15:06, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Data and RTLS performance

edit

The text mentions 5 tons to LEO with RTLS but that is prettymuch physically impossible with the stats on the data page, is that a mixup in the text between different launch profiels or are the stats inaccurate? I lookedi nto the source for stage 1 propellant mass and it does also include stage 2 propellant mass which is accurate in the data page but the stage 1 propellant mass in the source is actually lower The 5000kg paylaod seems more accurate for a downrange landing but with an RTLS landing and the limited information we have on the second stage the paylaod would be significantly less 2003:ED:4705:2200:8C51:3EA6:1F8C:DF21 (talk) 15:29, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

prototype version

edit

looking into the source documents and doing some further research it seems the data in the data sheet is for an expendable prototype, its not entirely clear how those differ but that is not identical to the reusable version especially i ntotal takeof mass which includes a much larger paylaod in this case though there's not much information on the stages empty weight 2003:ED:4705:2200:7556:8A8E:28B4:F345 (talk) 07:41, 15 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
