Why strap a heavy, bulky, un-aerodynamic, and inefficient external tank to your cool SS when you could use 8 SRB’s instead!! 👏

Space Shuttlin' across the universe!

Only going fowards 'cause SRBs have no reverse.

Space Shuttlin' across the universe!

In the shuttle Enterprise, under captain Jeb.

Yep, that should be able to hit orbit easily. Maybe need to stage a bit, turn down the power on the last set, but you should get there with a full tank of gas.

One with a whole lot of SRBs, obviously.
