The P-800 was used in the Russo-Ukrainian War. The Russian Defense Ministry announced that it had used the missile in 1 May 2022; reportedly a number of Oniks missiles were used to destroy military equipment around the city of Odesa. [18] On 19 July 2023, Oniks missiles were used to target Ukraine's grain storage facility in the Black Sea region.
Falcon 9 Full Thrust (version 1.2 / Block 3) was the first version of the Falcon 9 to successfully land. Changes included a larger fuel tank, uprated engines and supercooled propellant and oxidizer to increase performance. Block 3 and Block 4 are found in this list while the active Block 5 is listed separately.
The main changes from Block 3 (the original Falcon 9 Full Thrust) to Block 5 are higher-thrust engines and improvements to the landing legs along with numerous other small changes to streamline recovery and re-use of first-stage boosters and increase the production rate. Each Block 5 booster is designed to fly ten times with only minor ...

SpaceX’s Merlin 2 LOX/RP-1-fueled engine on a gas-generator cycle, capable of a projected 7,600 kN (1,700,000 lbf) of thrust at sea level and 8,500 kN (1,920,000 lbf) in a vacuum and would provide the power for conceptual super-heavy-lift launch vehicles from SpaceX, which Markusic dubbed Falcon X and Falcon XX.
Mockup with compressor and turbine cutaway. After the budget of NASA on aeronautics research was severely cut at the start of 2006, Pratt & Whitney committed to spend $100 million a year on the geared turbofan (GTF) development for the next generation of single-aisle airliners, focused on the 25,000–35,000 lbf (110–160 kN) thrust range.

24,800 lbf (110 kN) thrust with afterburner. [6] J93-GE-3 Production variant produced in small numbers for the North American XB-70 Valkyrie program. J93-GE-3R Variant with thrust reverser, 27,200 lbf (121 kN) thrust with afterburner. [7] J93-GE-3AR Variant intended for the North American XF-108 Rapier.
[3] [4] Each Space Shuttle SRB provided a maximum 14.7 MN (3,300,000 lbf) thrust, [5] roughly double the most powerful single-combustion chamber liquid-propellant rocket engine ever flown, the Rocketdyne F-1. With a combined mass of about 1,180 metric tons (2,600,000 lb), they comprised over half the mass of the Shuttle stack at liftoff.
