==== Types ====
[[Rig]] informs [[Spensa]] that an A-17 through A-32 central booster would fit in [[M-Bot]].{{book ref|sky1|22}}
=== Acclivity Ring ===
An acclivity ring is a ring made of [[acclivity stone]], a powerful substance that acts as anti-gravity when powered.
=== GravCaps ===
GravCaps, or gravitational capacitors, are a main functional part of [[DDF]] starfighters, allowing for more maneuverability than would otherwise be possible.{{book ref|sky1|14}} When making sharp turns, the GravCaps prevent gravitational force from affecting the pilot for about 3 seconds,{{book ref|sky1|14}} allowing more flexibility than would otherwise be possible. As DDF fighters do not limit maximum acceleration to protect the pilot, the G-force produced when accelerating can easily crush the pilot, so starfighters are equipped with GravCaps. Standard DDF GravCaps can absorb forces up to an extent of a certain maximum and several seconds.{{clarify}}
== Weaponry Systems ==
=== Light-Lance ===
A Light-lance is a weapon and tool used by the [[DDF]]{{book ref|sky1|14}} and [[M-Bot]]{{book ref|sky1|30}} to grapple to debris or other ships, allowing slingshot maneuvers otherwise impossible, rescue maneuvers, and other maneuvers to drag debris into [[varvax|Krell]] ships.
