Unlike the [[RT-B20 Solid Fuel Booster]], the amount of thrust can be dictated by the user, with varying severity in and out of the atmosphere of [[Kerbin]]. One can use full thrust, with a higher chance of overheat during atmospheric burning, and optimal thrust during low earth orbit, and minimal thrust for course corrections during high earth orbit.

Used correctly, an inordinate amount of fuel tanks are not necessary for orbit, as you cannot generate enough thrust in atmosphere with the liquid engine to make up for their weight.

The Rockomax X200-32 Fuel Tank, formerly known as FL-T32 Fuel Tank, provides fuel to attached liquid fuel engines. It contains 3200 units of propellant for liquid fuel engines.

Product description

Developed after one J. Kerman complained that the fuel tanks available were 'way too small', the X200-32 holds a generous amount of fuel, for all your... fueling needs or something like that. Shut up, Rockomax hires rocket scientists, not writers.
