A Jetpack is an example of Tau technology which provides enhanced mobility to their battlesuits and drones. Each device combines anti-gravitic and jet technology to provide the user extreme agility and the ability to Deep Strike behind enemy lines.[1] They differ primarily from jump packs in that they are designed more for providing a stable firing platform than for charging into close combat.[2]
