The KV-3 'Pomegranate' Reentry Module is a Command Module housing three Kerbal crew members during their mission. It has a rounded shape, similar to an pomegranate or Stayputnik. Whereas the Mk1-3 Pod is based off of the Apollo command module, the KV-3 is based off of Vokshod (3 person variant).
Contents
Usage
Generally placed at the top of the rocket, the KV-2 Pea provides basic command module functionality.
It features a 0.625 m radial size node on top, typically used for parts like the Mk16 Parachute, docking ports, service bays, or SAS modules. On the bottom, it has a 1.25m radial node.
Notably unlike the previous pods, the KV-2 has a small integrated heatshield, no monopropellant, and no reaction wheels. The last one requires extra care in craft design, else a mission could be curtailed or lost due to limited control options. It is lighter than the other 3-kerbal pods.
