Propulsion systems compared: 287 models

From cold-gas microthrusters of a few grams to launcher engines of several tonnes. Thrust is quoted as the manufacturer publishes it — in millinewtons for electric propulsion, in newtons and kilonewtons for chemical — so read it together with the mass column.

Figures are taken from manufacturer datasheets and product pages, normalised to common units. Every row links to the product page and, where available, to the datasheet itself. As of 2026-08-13.
