I'm not enough of a gear-head to spec them out but there are these cool contragravity submersibles on Fenris used to hunt the "Jarvis sea-monster" that also fly in the atmosphere when the weather's not too stormy.

And of course there is the single city of Port Sandor, entirely underground--again, because of the storms--but with huge elevators to the starport on the surface--which functioned in between storms-- and a waterfront where the hunter ships can come in underwater and then dock while floating on the surface at the edge of the underground city. (It was never clear to me whether there was a dome over the waterfront or if it was actually below sea level but had a pocket of positive-pressure atmosphere which made it seem like an ordinary water front.)

Exciting place!
