Falcon 9 vehicle

Falcon 9 is a two-stage launch vehicle powered by liquid oxygen (LOX) and rocket-grade kerosene (RP-1). The vehicle is designed, built and operated by SpaceX. Falcon 9 can be flown with a fairing or with a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft. All first- and second-stage vehicle systems are the same in the two configurations; only the payload interface to the second stage changes between the fairing and Dragon configurations.

Falcon 9 was updated in the summer of 2015 to a Full Thrust configuration from its previous v1.1 configuration (flown from 2013 –summer 2015). Falcon 9 underwent further updates and first flew its Full Thrust Block 5 configuration in spring 2018. The Falcon 9 Block 5 architecture focused on improving performance, reliability, and life of the vehicle, as well as ensuring the vehicle’s ability to meet critical government crewed and non-crewed mission requirements. Engine performance on both stages was improved, releasing additional thrust capability. Thermal protection shielding was modified to support rapid recovery and refurbishment. Avionics designs, thrust structures, and other components were upgraded for commonality, reliability, and performance.

Second Stage

Total mass (no cargo): 97.5 tons

Propellant mass: 92.6 tons

Burn time: 6.5 minutes

Vacuum Delta-V: 12.3Km/s

First Stage

Total mass: 418 tons

Propellant mass: 395 tons

Burn time: 2.7 minutes

SL Delta-V: 8.87Km/s

Total Vehicle Mass: 528 tons

Crew Dragon 2 Spacecraft

Wet mass: 11.5 tons

Propellant mass: 1.95 tons (Draco); 374kg (Super Draco)

Delta-V available: 537m/s in 58.2min of burn (the Orbital Maneuvering Draco engines supports time warp from 10x and beyond)

Please Read:

• The flight is manual. The first stage has capacity to return/land, but it's all manual, so it's inviable to land it and continue the 2nd stage orbital insertion.

• The AG3 activates the Draco engines localized inside the nose cone:

And AG2, the engines localized together with the RCS Dracos (pointing backwards), this one will be used to orbital maneuvers by default because of it's orientation.

•Both groups of engines supports time warp (10x and beyond), but make sure that the ALS engines are off:if the spacecraft is already separated from the 2nd stage, the abort system (ALS) will be disarmed, so you can turn AG5 (EJECT) on and off. Then you will be able to use time warp with OM Dracos with no problems, but always confirm if the engines are consuming fuel and if they are really generating thrust while in warp.

•If you gonna dock with this craft, I recommend use this same docking port as passive. Original passive IDS will not work due the docking port size and location.

OBS: In these images the docking system is in the wrong rotation, but now it's correct.
