Configure Kerwis Chinese Aerospace Pack Engines.
Due to Chinese rocket development being relatively late, engines have been placed roughly in line with their technological equivalents instead of according to their actual year of development, similar to most European engines.
YF-1: Similar to RD-211, placed in 1957 node
YF-3: Upper stage YF-1, placed in 1958
YF-20: Similar to RD-215/250, placed in 1960 node
YF-22/23/24: Upper stage YF-20, similar to RD-219. Placed in 1960 node
YF-73: Upper stage hydrolox engine. Awful performance and reliability, generally worse than RL10A-1. Placed in 1962 Hydrolox node
YF-75: Upper stage hydrolox engine, similar to RL10A-3-3, placed in 1966 Hydrolox node
YF-77: Gas generator hydrolox sustainer, broadly similar to Vulcain 1/2. Placed in 1996 Hydrolox node
YF-100: Staged combustion booster, directly derived from RD-120K. Placed in 1998 staged combustion node
