=== Acclivity Ring ===
An acclivity ring is a ring made of acclivity stone, a powerful substance that acts as anti-gravity when powered.
Several acclivity rings can be used in conjunction to lift something larger, like the orbital ship yards.

=== Atmospheric Scoop and Wings===
▲[[File: Atmospheric Scoop Demo.jpeg|thumb|left|Demonstration of how Atmospheric Scoop functions by [[Ben McSweeney]]]]
Whether there is atmosphere makes significant difference in flying techniques. Although starfighters can fly in space, in atmosphere, they have atmospheric scoops to reduce wind resistance and wings to provide extra lift and maneuverability. They enable turns that cannot be performed without them.{{book ref|Skyward}}

=== Light-Lance ===▼
A Light-lance is a weapon and tool used by the [[DDF]] and [[M-Bot]] to grapple to debris or other ships, allowing slingshot maneuvers otherwise impossible, rescue maneuvers, and other maneuvers to drag debris into [[Krell]] ships.▼
It functions by shooting a beam of light at the target, attaching the two until the pilot releases them.{{cite}}▼
It is described as a larger, more powerful version of the [[light-line]].{{cite}}▼
=== Destructors ===
The Destructor is a weapon used by the [[DDF]] and the [[Krell]] to damage and destroy enemy ships{{cite}}. Depending on the sequence of buttons pressed, the Destructor can fire a single projectile or a burst volley. The buttons can be held to charge and fire a concentrated beam.
A [[destructor]] is an energy beam weapon, and the primary means to shoot down enemy vessels. One shot of it would be enough to take down a fighter if it hit the right spot, but it can be blocked by force-fields generated by
=== Inverted Magellan Pulse ===
The Krell do not have this technology, giving the DDF an advantage. It is unknown how old the technology is, as both [[M-Bot]] and the DDF fighter ships have this capability{{cite}}.
