The Space Lifter 1 Magiri is a late-tech, low-part count reusable rocket capable of delivering medium-sized, 10-20t payloads to most Droo orbits. This is mostly done by abusing the most overpowered nozzle in the game (Alpha) and the most overpowered engine in the game (FFS). It can be used for GNSS contracts, and the upper stage has a small docking port in case you'd like to fit it for lander missions.

It's manual, and for recovery, it requires a splashdown instead of land landings. I did include a simple landing code for a better splashdown, though it's not perfect. Would love to one day have a proper vizzy landing program for this, but it is much too difficult for me.

The lower stage is kerolox, and the upper stage is hydrolox. The lower stage has a kerolox "RCS" system which you can toggle off with the standard activation group. Very much inspired by Falcon, but the point is to have a vehicle that I can easily use to put things up in space for cheap.

Will probably need a bigger space lifter soon.

The rocket is named after Magiri, the brave God who blessed all life within the world with power. A short poem about her feats is written on the midsection of the first-stage booster.
