Spit Tubes

Spit Tubes make their first appearance in Golden Son as formidable engineering marvels embedded in starship hangars across the Red Rising Saga. These vast honeycomb arrays of magnetic launch rails serve as high-velocity catapults, hurling armored soldiers into the void of space to execute lightning-fast boarding actions and orbital assaults. Their introduction underscores the brutal, technologically superior warfare tactics of the Golds, transforming routine hangar operations into high-stakes launches that define key space battles. As the series progresses, they evolve from mere transport mechanisms into symbols of strategic daring and the ever-escalating arms race among the colors.
