- Variant Notes
- Eight hydrazine reaction engines on the Voyager propulsion module retained as a separate maneuvering role; no individual thruster model is inferred.
- Name
- Voyager 2 hydrazine propulsion and attitude-control installation
- Notes
- Integrated Voyager 2 hydrazine subsystem only. The 16 mission-module thrusters and eight propulsion-module reaction engines are separated by role and module. The separate cold-nitrogen reaction-control subsystem and Voyager solid motor are intentionally omitted because this packet models only the documented hydrazine system.
