= Propulsion Tech =<br />
<br />
'''Propulsion Tech''' covers all movement and drive systems in the [[Natra|Natura]] universe — from conventional water-jet drives to gravity manipulation to dimensional transit. Tightly coupled to [[Gravity Tech]] (gravity manipulation IS the primary propulsion method) and [[Energy Tech]] (power sources drive propulsion capability).<br />
<br />
== Conventional Propulsion ==<br />
<br />
* '''Water-jet drives (BLDC electric)''' — [[Electro Speeder]] (Gen 0)<br />
* '''Hydrogen fuel thrusters''' — [[Hydro Speeder]] (Gen 1)<br />
* '''Twin-Duo Hydrogen Thrusters''' — [[Magneto Speeder]] backup propulsion<br />
* '''Chemical rockets''' — [[Earth Alliance]] Space Force legacy systems<br />
<br />
== MHD Propulsion ==<br />
{{main|MHD Tech}}<br />
<br />
Magnetohydrodynamic systems providing primary horizontal thrust:<br />
* '''[[MHD Core]]''' — superconducting MHD thrust + flux-pinned levitation + ZPE harvesting<br />
* '''MHD Drive''' — primary atmospheric and vacuum thrust system<br />
* '''MHD Conduit, MHD Rail, MHD Fluid''' — component subsystems<br />
<br />
The [[Magneto Speeder]] uses MHD thrust as primary horizontal propulsion, with [[Magnetogravitic Tech|magnetogravitic]] lift for vertical.<br />
<br />
== Gravity Propulsion ==<br />
{{main|Gravity Tech}}<br />
<br />
The defining propulsion paradigm of the Tho'ra vehicle family:<br />
* '''[[Electrogravitic Tech|Electrogravitic drives]]''' — attitude control, supplementary lift (8 panels for roll/pitch/yaw)<br />
* '''[[Magnetogravitic Tech|Magnetogravitic drives]]''' — primary vertical lift and starflight<br />
* '''[[Magneto Repulsors]]''' — personal-scale gravity propulsion (suit-mounted)<br />
* '''Power budget:''' ~260 kW cruise for Magneto Speeder gravity systems<br />
<br />
== Fusion Propulsion ==<br />
<br />
* '''Fusion Thrusters''' — attitude control jets<br />
* '''Fusion Drives''' — main thrust (high-efficiency plasma exhaust)<br />
* '''Fusion Turbines''' — mechanical power extraction from fusion reaction<br />
* '''Aneutronic fusion''' — p-B11 direct-conversion for Gen 3+ vehicles (no neutron radiation)<br />
<br />
== Advanced Propulsion ==<br />
<br />
* '''Warp drives''' — spacetime metric engineering for FTL transit ([[Warp Tech]] tier)<br />
* '''Dimensional transit''' — trans-dimensional rift traversal ([[Fusion Wings]] as stabilizers)<br />
* '''[[Morphing Grid]] provisioning''' — instant transformation-based locomotion ([[Star Morphers]])<br />
<br />
== Propulsion by Vehicle Generation ==<br />
