The TR-18A Stack Decoupler is a Decoupler that allows for staging rockets vertically and in sequence.

Use

The TR-18A adds a stage to the rocket and when activated will jettison the Decoupler as well as anything attached to it, much like the TT-38K.

Description

The TR-18A Stack Decoupler is equipped with a (hopefully) small explosive charge, that will sever the structural linkage between itself and whatever it's connected to.

0.8.5
