RAPTOR 3 · 280 tf
Regeneratively cooled bell and chamber jacketsIntegrated powerhead, turbopumps and gimbalRaptor 3: a fully integrated full-flow staged-combustion engine. Liquid methane and liquid oxygen drive two turbopumps into a 350 bar chamber, then out through a regeneratively cooled nozzle. 280 tf at sea level, 350 s of specific impulse.

The third-generation Raptor folds its plumbing into the casting: fewer parts, no heat shield, and a tighter powerhead. Thirty-three of them lift Super Heavy; six push the Ship.
