Looks quite heavy compared to a standard nozzle.

  Standard nozzles are quite heavy as well. It's entirely possible that this aerospike engine is actually lighter because they don't need large nozzles and nozzle extensions and are more efficient

    Standard nozzles do not need a cooled support structure right in the middle of the combustion chamber. I love these things, I made a linear aerospike (Never fired), but this thing just looks heavier than a standard TCA/nozzle
