A traditional Gravtrain,
The rediscovery of gravimetrics allowed Red Bear LLC to revisit and improve upon previously impracticable Babkhan Hovertank designs.

Gravimetrics is a science first developed in the Flying Islands of Jasonia as an offshoot of their anti-gravity program. Unlike other levitation technologies, such as gravity inversion rigs, gravimetrics relies on the simple use of reversed polarization of the gravity field, using magnetic repulsion to artificially levitate objects. The first such use of this technology came about after the Infernal War with the People's Republic of Hell, in which Jasonia appropriated Infernal science to create Gravtrains. The Gravtrains use gravimetric technology to levitate, looking much like a traditional steam locomotive, but with the ability to fly. The technology was used to overhaul the Jasonian mass transit system and became a popular method to haul large amounts of goods. In later years the technology saw limited use in military application for airships.

Since the beginning of the Shirerithian rearmament drive spurred by the confrontation with Jingdao, military engineers have begun to look, with renewed interest, at the applications of gravimetrics in land and naval warfare.
