Rocketdyne bi-propellant LR-101 1000 pound thrust rocket engine - the chamber served as a vernier (steering rocket) on the Atlas, Thor and Delta launch vehicles burning a combination of liquid oxygen and RP-1. The liquid oxygen also flowed through the chamber's nozzle for regenerative cooling.
This example retains intact its injector and liquid oxygen dome. It is a variant of the LR-101 that leveraged a hypergol pyrophoric starter (chemically ignited) vice electric ignition.
$850 shipped within the U.S. only. *****SOLD*****
