RS1
Description
Both stages of the RS1 rocket are powered by ABL's E2 rocket engine with nine in the first stage and one in the second stage. The engines use liquid oxygen (LOX) as an oxidizer and can use either RP-1 or Jet-A as fuel. The containerized RS1 launch system and rocket can be deployed to and launched from a suitably flat site, the main requirements being access for trucks capable of carrying ISO containers (for the RS1 first stage), and a flat concrete pad.
