What about hover tanks? How do they work?
Well, in the early thirties a man named Thomas Townsend Brown(BB effect) discovered a new form of propulsion later known as "Electrogravitics" which is accomplished by using a high-voltage power source with high-k elements on the front and rear of the craft "manipulating" gravity to lift the an object, or tank in this instance, causing people to think this is "anti-gravity" which it is actually creating your own gravity around an object(that is how you can maneuver in the air or in space).
The tanks and other vehicles in battlezone use what is known as a "flame-jet generator" sometimes multiple.
The Flame-jet generator uses a rocket or jet engine as the base and the generator is at the end, when the engine is turned on the FJG is adding negative ions to the flow of the jet allowing for electrogravitics to take place propelling the craft in virtually any direction only depending on the direction of the positive and negative ions.
This was just a quickie here, although there is an abundance of information out there, so have fun discussing this one!
