The J-X4 is atually a turboramjet, a ramjet with a turbine core, combining aspects of turbojets and ramjets, giving the resultant engine static thrust along with the high-speed performance of a ramjet.

* JustPlaneWrong: The J-X4 "Whiplash" is a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramjet ramjet]] engine, which in real life only works when the plane is already going sufficiently fast (usually around Mach 3) and would require another engine to accelerate the plane in the first place. Ramjets also require a shock cone intake, but the game doesn't require you to use one. For all intents and purposes ramjets in KSP work just like regular jet engines.

** Landing using retrograde thrusters to slow your descent looks undeniably cool, but uses a lot of fuel compared to just... installing a parachute for the job.

Each rocket part now costs funds, of which the space program only has so much at any one time, making simple rockets with inexpensive and easily recovered and refurbished parts necessary for accomplishing elaborate objectives, where an unrestricted mode might favor flashier and less humble designs.
