Description
Designed to lift up to about 515 tons to a 90km orbit. Remove two hanging central liquid fuel pods to increase lift to about 550 tons, but have less spare dV once in orbit.

Designed to be an easy to use lifter for large crafts and cargo. Includes Anti-flip technology! Connect cargo to central decoupler, and strut as needed. See example craft here (with more pics): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1520920873

Built in Tug can carry cargo beyond orbit towards its next destination.

All stock parts - No Mods or DLC needed.

Custom Actions / Quick Keys:
1 - Toggle On/Off Tug engines (Nerv).
2 - Toggle On/Off Lifter engines (Mammoth).

As always, any constructive feedback or questions are welcome. Check out my other KSP Workshop uploads at: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/Mortazel/myworkshopfiles/?appid=220200

Well, I just tried 514 tons, and it worked on the first try. 90km orbit with 592 spare dV to increase orbit, if needed.

If you cut off the 2 dangling liquid fuel pods in the center, you could lift about 550 tons, but have less spare dV in orbit.

What is the max weight it can take to orbit?
