The power requirement of vehciles desgined to transport cargo supporting a piloted expedition to Mars is in the range of megawatts. Therefore, it is imperative that the megawatt - class power processing unit designed for high-power nuclear electric propulsion vehicles using turboalternators and advanced magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters shouls be such that the overall system efficienty is as high as possible with minimum system specific mass.
