Originally from the KSPX parts mod, the Rockomax 48-7S is the non radial version of the Rockomax 24-77.

Usage

Like the 24-77, LV-1, and LV-1R, the 48-7S is intended to propel probes and small crewed craft. Due to its relatively high Isp and thrust to weight ratio, the 48-7S is remarkably capable in ascent, transfer, and lander roles.

Description

A cousin of the 24-77, the 48-7S is a stack mounted probe engine that packs quite a punch.
