Stretch goal for Starship V4 is 300 tons of thrust per engine with 33 engines, so 10,000 tons of total thrust.
That is 3 times the power of the Saturn V Moon rocket.

SpaceX’s Starship is already one of the biggest flying objects ever built and it’s still getting bigger • With Starship 4, total size could grow ~10–20% • Raptor thrust jumps ~20%, nearing 9,000 tons at sea level • Enough to send 200+ tons to useful orbit • Fully & rapidly reusable - no expendable rockets And then comes the rapid scale-up “With 50 Starships flying every 3 days on average, that’s over a megaton of payload to orbit every year - enough to start building a self-sustaining city on Mars” - Elon Musk
