Go drive by the San Pedro port, bring a pair of binoculars, and look into the big Sprung tent at the SpaceX facility.

Its a price SpaceX is willing to pay for optimal thrust to weight ratios. Besides, unlike the Soviets with their one time use engines, SpaceX can test fire their engines for several full, mission-duration burns by design.

Because it doesn't use the cobbled together bodies of the willing proletariat to run its engines. Tech (and, in this case, basically everything else) moves on.

>>9884011
The most important technologies SpaceX has going for them for handling engine-outs are:
>Compartmentalization of the turbopumps, limiting the scope of damage that will be caused by engine failures
>Engine gimbals that allow them to vector their thrust to compensate for asymmetries without shutting down an engine on the opposite side of the vehicle
>The time and budget for a robust testing regimen to iron out problems with the design of the engines and launch vehicle

that was for the larger version of ITS shown at IAC 2016. That being said, it is even bigger than that which is required for the smaller version of ITS they're now building, and it was tested successfully to destruction. They probably have a test article for the smaller ITS now I bet

N1 used untested engines produced in batches of 5 iirc. We can also do much better fluid simulations to remove dangerous resonances nowadays.
