SpaceX Increasing Raptor Engine Power
The 15 million pounds of thrust is five times the 3 million pounds of the SLS booster which was tested recently.
The first stage of the Saturn V had 7,600,000 pounds-force of thrust.
The Space Shuttle generated a peak thrust of 6,800,000 lbf (30,100 kN).
The Soviet Energia had a liftoff thrust of 7,826,000 lbf (34,810 kN).
The Raptors will have over 380 seconds of ISP for the vacuum version.
