 | This page or section is in need of being brought up to date. Please help Kerbal Space Program Wiki by fixing inaccurate or outdated information. Obsolete due to demo being brought up to 0.18.3. Demo parts may diverge again, however. |
This page lists the rocket parts that are included with the free demo version Kerbal Space Program, currently 0.13.3. These parts are also called vanilla parts or default parts.
For a list of all the parts available in the paid version of Kerbal Space Program, look at the paid parts page.

Units of measure
- While units are not specifically labeled in-game, a bit of logic can quickly determine that thrust is measured in kilonewtons (kN) and mass in metric tons (t). For example, if measured in kilograms(kg), a "9 kg" Rockomax X200-16 Fuel Tank on Kerbin, having a surface gravity of 9.81 m/s2, would be roughly the size of a 48 oz coffee tin and only hold about 1.5 L of fuel. If measured in metric tons, a 9 t Rockomax X200-16 Fuel Tank under the same gravity would be about 0.67 m tall and 2 m in diameter, easily capable of holding the advertised 1600 L of fuel. Only a rocket engine with a thrust around 100 kN could have any chance to lift a 9 t fuel tank.
- It is likely that the game engine uses kg to calculate part mass in the background but displays metric tons for parts in the user interface to save on screen space. It is also easier to read 20 "t" than 20000 "kg" (1 metric ton = 1000 kg).
- To reduce confusion, specific impulse is given in both velocity and time units. Please see the discussion page for further reading on ways of expressing specific impulse.
