About the build

This rocket isn’t my largest lifter but it has the most payload to LKO of any rocket I’ve made by far. At ~170 tons to about a 75x75km orbit, it has an even higher payload capacity than the rocket proposal I based it on, which had 160 tons of capacity. This is probably my proudest creation, since it has a very high payload capacity whilst having great amounts for detail at a low enough part count to use it as a meaningful lifter. It’s got several small details that often get overlooked in other Saturn replicas such as the gold foil heatshield on the S-II as well as the silver ends of the F-1 housings. It also features a working interstage. All these factors mean you can deliver massive payloads and look awesome while doing so.
