MGS Gravnought is a large gravship constructed by Mondoworks. The 384 metre-long vessel was designed by Mondo Etzeterra and is based upon technical sketches originally prepared in the Kingdom of Lichbrook, incorporating grav-inversion rig technology researched by Shireroth's Project Mortis.

A second gravnought was completed in 1716 AN, but subsequently transferred to Steerswick. That same year, work began on a third unit commissioned by the Benacian Union following the ratification of the Treaty of Fort Ermingander. Two further vessels were identified during the 1719 Hurmu government crisis.

Many details of the design remain unclear, but the MGS Gravnought has served on numerous occasions as a visible expression of the foreign policy interests of the Mondosphere.
