The DS-10 'Cyclone' Is a 3-stage ICBM that is designed to also double as a launch vehicle for satellites.

The exact payload capacity is awkward to calculate because of the trajectory and the use of the third stage, but it should be between 6t and 8t to LEO.

The first stage uses 4 gas generator main engines with 8 electric pump-fed vernier engines, the second stage uses 2 gas generators and the third stage uses a single electric pump-fed engine.

The in-game version uses kerolox, but a hypothetical real version would use RP-1 with HTP or N2O4
