A three-stage rocket featuring each of the default parts

This page lists the rocket parts that are included with Kerbal Space Program. These parts are also called vanilla parts or default parts.

Units are given as Newtons (N) and Kilograms (kg), but there is likely a scaling factor involved. As long as your scaling factor is applied equally to all measures, the math will work just fine, so if you prefer, you can think in terms of metric tons and kN.  :)
