T/W Performance Guide
| Vehicle Type | Typical T/W | Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Aircraft (Commercial) | 0.2–0.5 | Steady climb |
| Aircraft (Fighter) | 0.8–1.5 | High maneuverability |
| Drone/RC Model | 1.0–3.0 | Agile, vertical takeoff |
| Rocket | 1.5–10.0 | Vertical launch |
Note: Results are theoretical. Actual T/W depends on operating conditions and design. Consult test data for precise performance.
