Chimeran Dropship

The Chimeran Dropship, also known as "buzzards", are a type of armed shuttle that provide limited levels of close air support for ground troops.

Advanced propulsion units allow the craft to create a dramatic lift allowing them to be better armored than the Human equivalent aircraft. Dropships are tasked with bringing in new Chimeran troops into battle through the use of external transport containers.

Each transport is capable of holding multiple Chimeran squads to ensure maximum tactical flexibility. These containers can also be dropped from low altitude directly into the combat zone for a speedy delivery of troops.
