MKV Thunderhawk Heavy Dropship

By far the largest troop transport in the UGI. It can transport 120 soldiers into the heat of battle if it isn't transporting the vehicles both inside it as well as the GAUR underneath it being carried by a Tractor beam.
==Design and Characteristics==
Designed to be a behemoth, this vehicle is the most fearsome of all the troop transports as seeing one is just mind boggling, as well as its extremely hard to take down. It can take off veritcally and hover above the ground. The best feature of it is it can act as a military command post with its equipment it will be not only mobile but it will be able to stay in the air for nearly 20 days without refuel and with auto-pilot its even better.
==History==
Used exclusively by the UGI Marines, and Army it is one of the best things to see is when a unit goes into basic training they are transported to the military installation in one of these behemoths. They were put into production in 2899 and are actually fairly new only a 7 years of service and not one has ever been shot down to date.
===Corporate War===
During the Corporate War these dropships were not shotdown as they were not engaged in the open warfare. 12 of these dropships acted as Medievac for the entire war and were deemed neutral. Under UGI Medical Aid act they were proted by intergalactical law as they were painted white and red.
