Default [Spaceships] It seems that TL7 Chemical Rocket's acceleration is an overspec.

When I played Kerbal Space Program, only 1.2G-1.6G was sufficient to escape Kerbin. And I know that TWR of real-world Saturn V is 1.15G.

But at GURPS Spaceships p21, it says that TL7 Chemical Rocket provides 3G accelerations. It seems that it is an astounding overspec. It is greater than real-world TL7 Chemical Rockets, and it is greater than even TL9 HDEM Chemical Rocket (it provides 2G).
