:Yeah, [[:File:Infinity_fud_scale.jpg|DFR does we refer to "deuterium fusion reactor"]]. Perhaps replusor engine is being used as a descriptor? Not sure if that would make much sense though. It most likely is your last point. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 11:14, 12 October 2016 (EDT)

Mythos (p132) says the ship has repulsor engines. H4 EVG identifies them as "XR2 Boglin Fields: S81/X-DFR". Assuming DFR refers to "deuterium fusion reactor" (which we have assumed so far) it seems somewhat out of place for engines so technologically different to be grouped in the same category as humanity's more conventional fusion thrusters. In all fairness, it could be that the engines use repulsor technology and only derive their power from deuterium-deuterium reactors, while the "X" before the "DFR" could indicate "experimental" or "xeno" or something similar. --Jugus (talk) 02:53, 12 October 2016 (EDT)

Yeah, DFR does we refer to "deuterium fusion reactor". Perhaps replusor engine is being used as a descriptor? Not sure if that would make much sense though. It most likely is your last point. --NightHammer(talk)(contribs) 11:14, 12 October 2016 (EDT)
