Oh like basically a DC-X with an aerospike? Yes make it TSTO and it would make me coom. Would probably be the most effective / efficient rocket ever made. Would have to be around 18m though because the tapering would mean less room for living space if it were just 9m

Not him but thats a really good question.
I know that the engines were not that efficient in the 70s but that can be overcome with more fuel.
I guess the lack of powerfull cpus for the landing navigation and suicide burn were a big factor.
Am I missing something big here ?
