After looking at the patent, Peter Beck is the lead name i.e. Rocket Lab.
To me this looks like a design patent. If I 3D designed & printed a different
engine, I would patent the design. The Rocket Lab design looks reasonable but
nothing special. What I would love to see is a design patent on their pump
system.

Interesting diagrams, surprisingly weak claims.
