Thanks for posting the specs.
Just seems like a strange motor to market, really. I'd consider that to be a 'hot' E motor really.....just does spec over into F range.
What one would use it in other than some min diameter rockets, I'm not sure. Some what like the old FSI F7s........they made good 1/100 scale Saturn V thrust build-up scale launcher motors (two placed in opposing direction in the flame trench of the scale launch pad......looked pretty realistic).
