How SpaceX's NEW Raptor knocked out Russia's best rocket engine...
Russia, previously the Soviet Union, is one of the strongest aerospace powers in the world. They and the U S have always created fierce competition since the early days of the aerospace industry.
One of their trump cards in this competition is the RD-180 engine. Indeed, the RD-180 shocked the aerospace industry after it was created, becoming the most powerful engine after the era of the F-1 engine, even causing their competitor as well as a leading superpower like the U S to depend on it for a long time. With the RD-180, the Russians confidently declared that they owned the best engine in the world.
But everything changed when Elon Musk and the Raptor engine appeared. Besides helping the U S end its dependence on Russia, with the Raptor engine, SpaceX has ended the dominance of the RD-180. It can be said that it knocked out the greatest pride of the Russians and once again regained the title of the King of Engines back to the U S.
So how SpaceX's Raptor crushed Russia's best rocket engine.
Stay tuned as we dive and more in this episode of Alpha Tech!
