The (Gas-core Nuclear Ion Jet) GNIJ-12 interplanetary VTOL SSTO, an upgraded sucessor to the GNIJ-11, is a nuclear powered interplanetary self reflueling vehicle with an unrivaled level of versatility. Like its predecessor, this spacecraft has an extensive range and the capability to reach orbit from the lower atmosphere of planets comparable to that of Urados. The difference is, this craft features an improved TWR that allows it to reach orbit on planets with 2G surface gravity.
This VTOL capable SSTO has a virtually unlimited range due to its self refueling capabilities. Its electrolosis thrusters allow for maneuverwbility in planets with no atmosphere. And its nuclear powered ion jets allow it to fly indefinately in the atmospheres of gas giants.
Features:
- Fully electric jets
- Electrolysis VTOL rockets
- VTOL Landing assist program
- Two 20.4 MW nuclear reactors
- Gas core nuclear thermal rockets
- Ion thrusters with 72kN of thrust in total
- Reverse thrust jet engines for atmosphere
- Reverse electrolysis rockets for vaccum
- Up to 73,700 m/s of Delta V
- Refueler
Change log:
- Fixed heat transfer issues
- Improved thrust-to-weight ratio
- Revamped engine colors
- Updated wings

@Infinitycorp I made this on mobile. I’m guessing this is a quirk with PC versions of the game. I may have to replace the seats with a passenger pod in future updates. The only thing I can suggest is to report this bug and disable heating in the meantime

@lordvader0219 sadly this plane also suffers of the chair burning in atmosphere problem that also happened whit Lv 02 rss btw some wings rip off when doing an unrestricted climb

@Welliedowner this should run on stock. All the engines have been modified using the hidden properties editor

@lordvader0219 I was able to get into orbit by ascending at 30 degrees...I was too impatient before haha...thanks for your help

@lordvader0219 thanks, I will give that a try. Should I turn on all engines until I reach orbit?

@TheNoname this craft’s ion jets and gas core engines have more than enough thrust to allow this craft to ascend into Droo orbit at a 45 degree angle, but preferably at 30 degrees.

perfect SSTO for travel
