Iron Star Initiative

The Iron Star Initiative is a collaborative project by the Ironforge Military, Gnomeregan Military and 1st Royal Experimental Engineer Regiment of Stormwind created in the early days of the Iron War. With the rapid destruction of Alliance tanks of all makes by Iron Horde armour and artillery, the foremost mechanized divisions of each army agreed to work in conjunction to capture, dismantle, and analyze as many Iron Horde mechanical units as possible to develop counter-weapons and improve on their own designs. This initially informal and nameless project was quickly designated the Iron Star Initiative when it was discovered that the titular iron star sat at the heart of each Iron Horde war-machine, and given official sanction in its endeavours to adapt Iron Star technology to Alliance use.
While the Horde's Iron Stars are relatively crude, over-sized engines running on unrefined fuels, their destructive potential is undeniable. The Initiative hopes to miniaturize the technology by the use of the highly-refined fuels employed by the Gnomish military for aircraft and spider-tanks and via enhanced material construction. The potential uses of a centrifugal engine, once suitably perfected, are limitless.
