Do they get the 6 inch assault move as well or is that just Eldar jetbikes?

Only Eldar/Dark Eldar, unless the Necrons have a special rule in their own codex.

In the dex it just states move as jetbikes so nothing in the way of the Eldar move. Thanks

Necron Destroyers, Heavy Destroyers, Wraiths, Scarabs can move 12" and still shoot full range or assault 6" as normal, Lords with destroyer body can move 12" still shoot if he hasn't been upgraded to warsythe and since the staff of light is an assault weapon he can still assault 6" aswell.
Also all of these units can make use of the turbo-boost USR as stated in the BRB.

I know I was just asking if they get the 6" move in the assault phase but don't have to assault.

Jet bikes and jet packs, there is a difference. Nercons have Jet bikes, tau and eldar have jet packs

No Eldar do not have jet packs.

They have jetbikes with an extra ability. See P53, eldar jetbikes.

OP, necron jetbikes do not have that special ability.

No, there is a difference between:

Jetbikes; and

Eldar Jet Bikes

Necrons have the former. Eldar (and dark eldar) have the latter

Jet PACKS are entirely different (mainly by you not moving as far in the movement phase) to the other two.

Technically Necrons only have Infantry; Several of them just move as if they were Jetbikes(still not Eldar Jetbikes).

Not that this matters because the Jetbike/Bike rules only really deal with movement, and the Models that have Heavy Weapons also have a rule stating that they can move and fire those weapons(but not assault, they are not relentless).
