Near Future Aeronautics

A mod pack for Kerbal Space Program, part of the Near Future suite of mods.

Features

This mod features a number of new parts for spaceplanes and aircraft.

  • Large Multimode Engines: Big (2.5m), powerful RAPIER-like engines for your wildest spaceplane needs.
  • Large Jet Engines: Hefty 2.5m engines - turbofans and turbojets for big aircraft.
  • Advanced Propeller Engines: Super-efficient low speed propfans and turboprops.
  • Lift Fans: Designed specifically for efficient VTOL and available in many sizes, these engines can run on LiquidFuel and air, or be * driven electrically for flight in oxygenless atmospheres.
  • Nuclear Jet Engines: Massive, rewarding engines that let you fly almost forever!
  • Large Nacelles and Intakes: Of course, 2.5m nacelles, engine pods, precoolers and advanced intakes to help out.

Dependencies

Required

These components are required for the mod to function and are bundled as part of any download:

Installation

To install, place the GameData folder inside your Kerbal Space Program folder. If asked to overwrite files, please do so.

NOTE: Do NOT rename or move folders within the GameData folder - this mod uses absolute paths to assets and will break if this happens.

External Mod Compatibility

This mod includes compatibility patches for the following mods:

  • KSP-AVC: Provides version checking
  • Community Tech Tree: Provides an expanded, community-sourced technology tree for modders to use

Contributing

I certainly accept pull requests. Please target all such things to the dev branch though!
