The Stratus-V Roundified Monopropellant Tank provides can contain monopropellant fuel utilized by a spaceship's RCS thrusters. It is currently the smallest RCS tank available in the game which contains 250% (30 units) less propellent when compared to the larger Stratus-V Cylindrified Monopropellant Tank.

Usage

Like the Stratus-V Cylindrified Monopropellant Tank, this monopropellant tank can be placed on the surfaces of other objects (fuselage, fuel tanks, wings...etc...), rather than just at the dedicated attachment nodes which allow rocket builders to come up with creative solutions for installing these tanks. Ever since change 0.90, its mass ratio is quite acceptable.

Product description

Despite its fanciful name, the Stratus-V is quite simple - a small, radially attachable RCS tank.
