A medium repulsortank was a type of hovering tank that used repulsorlift technology to propel each vehicle forward. These repulsortanks did not have the same armor or firepower as a heavy repulsortank. Nor did they have the same speed, mobility and maneuverability as an light repulsortank. Instead, they were supposed to be a combination of the best element from both classes. Sometimes the opposite happened.[1]

In contrast to the four heavy repulsortanks.[2] This could be doubled with the addition of four more armor sections. Each armor section would have two medium repulsortank.[3]
