Do we have confirmation that they might use magitek gimmicks for their aetheric manipulation as a substitute to conjury, thaumathurgy, etc? That would sound pretty logical considering that they already do it for reaper armours and every other armament of their arsenal...
Just that they cannot use magic and that magitek is very prolific in the empire. Reapers, field generators, Mecha, fighter craft, etc. etc. We also have examples and lore bits of the soldiers having magitek attached to their armor. Given that Garleans are mostly indistinguishable from Hyur's (save of that whole "third eye" thing) we cannot tell which are conscripts and which are pure bloods in the field, unless they are a whole other race like miqo, elezen, roe, or do not have their forehead's covered.
