All 11 #MIURA1 sections are being assembled and tested for the first fully integrated combined test with launch platform. Thread! 👉
All those 11 #MIURA1 sections have different functionalities and are mated together in the final steps of the integration after individual acceptance. In some cases requires full set of acceptance test in nominal conditions before final assembly in the launch vehicle. 
ACHIEVEMENT | Continuing with our rocket engine tests, we have accumulated + than 800s engine runs with our SN5 engine, including 2 processes of integrating and dismantling the entire engine, to demonstrate robustness and availability of full inspection among flights. #Propulsion
Engine performance is great, 30.8kN (sea level), ISP ~240s with 0.93 combustion efficiency (enough for a pressure fed cycle). 3 new engines SN6, SN7 and SN8 in flight version config. ready for qualification and acceptance before Flight Engine 1 assembly.
A step closer to the full engine qualification. #Reusability #Propulsion #RocketEngine #Space #GoPLDSpace #MIURA1 @aeropuerteruel
