The repulsor engines of a CCS-class battlecruiser
The repulsor engine is a propulsion system used by Covenant starships for sublight navigation, configured for swift and agile localized transit.[1] Little is known about its mechanisms, other than that it produces quantum fluctuations that can affect personnel within its range, and leaves a wake that can affect other starships.[2] UNSC Infinity is the only known vessel of human manufacture to use repulsor engines.[3]
