Usage

The Mk3 to 2.5m Adapter Slanted is used to provide a seamless connection between Mk3 and 2.5m parts, allowing 2.5m parts such as engines, fuel tanks, reaction wheels, or command modules to be attached to a Mk3 craft (such as a spaceplane). It also has a flat side like other Mk3 parts, letting it also serve as an attachment point for wings, fins, and landing gear.

Unlike the Mk3 to 2.5m Adapter, the Mk3 to 2.5m Adapter Slanted is not well suited to usage on traditional rockets, due to its slanted shape. However, it is possible to use them on symmetrical, radially mounted parts, without unbalancing the rocket's center of mass.

The Mk3 to 2.5m Adapter is also a rocket fuel tank containing liquid fuel and oxidizer. It can be used to power liquid fuel rocket engines, like the RE-L10 "Poodle" Liquid Fuel Engine. It can be placed both in-line and radially mounted.
