    Hover tech has another advantage : it can move on tiberium crystals that might otherwise render such movements impossible to tracked vehicles or damage tracks.

    Hover tech also provides ability to move through tiberium without risking tiberium corrosion. Vehicles are not immune to tiberium after all. They are just resistant. As for those openings, those look like air intakes. Turbofans need to suck in air and compress it to create thrust. You see air scoops like these on fighter jets.

    I'm not so sure they did work out the recoil. The weapons they deploy on hover chassis all have significantly less recoil than a tank cannon - an MLRS and the sonic cannon ont the Shatterer recoil very little if at all, and the Slingshots' autocannons can only shoot up (so cause less horizontal movement) and are still significantly less powerful than a proper tank gun.

    There is a good chance that the TibSun HoverTech works using turbine engines, with thrust being redirected downwards to provide lift. This would explain the large nozzles on the sides of the Hover MLRS. These suck air for a pair of larger turbines to provide thrust. This is why I'm assuming the normal movement of a Hover MLRS would be due to titlting (similar to a helicopter). This is not particularly effective because you won't be moving that quickly. That's where the smaller nozzles come in. Now that the vehicle itself is floating off the ground, it will not be affected by ground resistance. Hence, smaller turbine engines can be used for propulsion. This also helps explain why they can go so fast, being able to suck more air the faster they go, improving the fuel-air ratio inside the smaller engines to give it greater speed the faster it goes. Turbine engines are already in use in ground vehicles today (see russian and ukranian T-80U and american M1 Abrams) but i dont think an actual jet engine were ever used for propulsion. but i don't think it's in the realm of impossibility

    I find it amusing that the Idea for the Hover MLRS being a highly mobile platform with having the same Rocket Launch systems as the M270 is a thing in real life in the form of the HIMARS, Just with wheels instead of hover. And like its fictional hovering counterpart, the HIMARS has been pretty good at the "shoot and scoot" tactic that utilizes its high mobility to avoid counter-battery fire.

    After the changes to Tiberium this is my second biggest gripe with C&C3+ lore. In Tiberian Sun there were almost no ships anymore due to tiberium floating on the surface. This would attach to hulls and heavily increase maintenance and the hazard of that maintenance. Walkers and hover tech was invented with similar ideas in mind. Tiberium got easily stuck between tracks, eating away at the tracks and suspension. Not to mention the tiberium crystal shards and dust particles thrown on top of the vehicle when passing through tiberium fields. Walkers and hover tech were perfect for avoiding that. Why did NOD still employ tracks? Because NOD did not have the technology and relied heavily on what the 3rd world nations it ruled could build. Then C&C3 comes along and says "nope it was too expensive for reasons. We'll randomly use it for two other vehicles anyway, one of which uses it for the exact purpose of the previous war".

    The openings at 4:22 on the hover MLRS are likely air intakes for jet engines, based on the positioning and size I could assume the hover MLRS makes use for 4 jet engines, 2 of them are likely the main lift engines requiring the huge intake on the front (and equally huge engines) and the other 2 are likely for the propulsion jets since you need a fraction of the amount of force keeping it in the air to move it. The two pod things on the side of the MLRS are likely the engine housings, I would imagine the internals to look similar to a jet such as a MIG-31, but with two engines stacked ontop of each other. Edit: as to the reason why they shut down during an ion storm its possible it could be due to a sharp decrease in air quality or sharp decrease of combustible gasses in the air (such as O2) that starves the engines and causes a stall

    @@MarqFJA87 But reverse performance is a big factor to consider in Armored combat vehicles irl though. Like how quicky they could go back out of position after shooting to lessen the chance of being hit again. Even in C&C games, there is an option for a "Reverse move" to to allow for quick retreat and have the strongest part of the armor (usually the front) to continuously face the enemy. In C&C 3, most vehicles that can Reverse move has the same speed going backwards as they would forward.

    It’s probably because of the need to put more thrusters on the compensate for recoil that most hover vehicles in the games have light recoil weapons. An MLRS can vent the exhaust of the missiles out the back, a quad 50 has limited recoil, and Sonic hover tanks have visible recoil but it seems minimal compared to the power of the weapon.

    I think scrin hover is magnetic. It uses powerful magnetic repulsers that go against the magnetic field of a planet. This creates lift without needing large noisy engines.

    GDI can't use the Scrin hover Tec as there will be reliant on Tiberium that GDI don't want to use especially if they want to eradicate it. So I'm not entirely sure it will be much use to GDI not as NOD uses Tiberium for many things it would be interesting to see them use all the Tec they stole in the 3rd war, hopefully that won't be ignored.

    I wish that they had more realistic hover vehicles. Some more realistic hover vehicles would be hover APCs and hover scout vehicles. This is because both of these vehicles would not have to be very heavy and the weapons mounted on such vehicles would not have much recoil. The advantages of hovers would be very good for these roles because they could traverse any environment and do so at an impressive speed.
