Interstellar Vehicle Manifest Destiny

The Interstellar Vehicle Manifest Destiny is the leading spaceship in a fleet of interstellar vehicles (ISVs) that travel between planet Earth and the distant moon Pandora. This version was heavily modified in comparison to the older Interstellar Vehicle Venture Star.
The Manifest Destiny was General Frances Ardmore's flagship along with ten more vessels, which arrived on Pandora as an invasionary force to establish the colony of Bridgehead.Avatar: The Way of Water: The Visual Dictionary page 44

The habitation modules have been replaced with "sling loads" called Landing Modules to carry heavy equipment, military vehicles and machinery. 
Unlike its predecessors, Manifest Destiny can use its high thrust matter-antimatter engines for atmospheric entry and descent in order to land massive payloads directly on the surface, acting like a colossal skycrane. The searing high energy exhaust flares burn the surrounding landscape, sending fire storms over a 20-mile-wide radius, creating an extra defense layer for the landing module and surface teams. Once a module has landed, the ISV releases its cable connections and then ascends to orbit. 
Like its predecessor, the Manifest Destiny like all ISVs hold a diminutive small crew in contrast to its size. The vessel is operated by just 25 crew members with a equally comparatively small passenger capacity of 200 (not counting passengers from the Landing Module)Pandorapedia ISV.
== Trivia ==
* ISV Manifest Destiny is named after the concept of "manifest destiny", the idea that the European colonization of America was a divinely ordained goal and is widely considered to have been a driving cause behind the genocide of Native Americans and the concept of imperialism.
