Description

Hoverbombers are large, heavily armored hovercraft designed to operate as flying fortresses or gun platforms in challenging environments. Powered by robust thruster jets, these vehicles hover through the wastes, providing both transportation and formidable offensive capabilities. They typically accommodate a pilot and multiple crew members—such as gunners and passengers—depending on their specific configuration. While their considerable size and weight can make hoverbombers cumbersome and challenging to maneuver, their thick armor and high structural integrity enable them to withstand significant damage. This ensures the safety of those on board while allowing the vehicle to deliver powerful weaponry or transport personnel to almost any location in the wastes. Hoverbombers require skillful handling to use effectively in combat situations, but their ability to absorb damage and protect their crew makes them indispensable assets on the battlefield.
