00:00Remember when SpaceX shaved the Raptor 1 down by 400 kilograms to 1.6 tons? With the latest
00:08evolution to Raptor 3, the engine has shed another 200 kilograms and now weights just 1.4 tons.
00:17Every engineer's dream. SpaceX has pushed the Raptor's thrust to weight ratio from around
00:2292 on Raptor 1 to over 192 and we haven't even reached the operational phase of the Raptor's
00:31life cycle yet. In any case, the goal is for the engine to shed another 200 kilograms and to boost
00:38its performance by another 20%. That would mean future Raptors weighing 1.2 tons could deliver
00:46over 320 tons of thrust. That results in an incredible thrust to weight ratio of 269.
00:56Overall, Starship could generate a total of over 10,560 tons of thrust with such potential
01:03Raptors. The engines currently attached to the test articles in Boca Chica are Raptor 2 engines
01:08with 230 tons of thrust and a thrust to weight ratio of 144.
01:16importance of itsалаe. So you can see the pace of the Raptors going up.
01:17Non-office of the Raptor 2.5 remains the same as the Raptor 3 engine.
01:18You can see the Raptor 1.5 tons of thrust. So you can see the Raptor 2 engine
01:19deeply and the Raptors will not be able to do as a result of the Raptor 3.5 tons or
01:19a total of the Raptor 2.5 tons of thrust. So, they'll need an process of the Raptor 3.5
01:19tons.
01:19Let's move on.
