Description

470k ton spaceplane. Has 5k dv in LKO

Includes lander and RCS tug to load lander.

LKO Ascent

Takeoff at 130 m/s, use vectors as needed to get to speed.
Build speed at low altitude, use vectors to break 430 m/s.

Gradually build speed until altitude is 10km. Level off and build speed to 1400+ m/s, then nose up 15°

At 20km activate NERVs, vectors, and closed-cycle rapiers. When apoapsis reaches 40km deactivate rapiers.

Continue to orbit, after vectors cut out due to spent oxidiser, NERVs will finish orbit. (Lander fuel won’t be used, extra fuel is held in tank lander is docked with.)
