SPECIAL FEATURES

• Vehicle Bay
• Troop Transport
• Upgradable Design

DETAILED SPECIAL FEATURES
Vehicle Bay: Built at the tail end and designed to hold a single larger vehicle for transport. THere is not a large selection and the larger vehicles or the super small vehicles are unable to be carried. Most of the ground based vehicles from jeeps to smaller tanks
Troop Transport: The interior is a little smaller then the space based gunships however the less troops it can carry works tro the benefit as it allows moving vehicles with the teams
Upgradable Design: Designed with upgrades and special models in mind. The outer plating can be changed out for different types or covered in polymers should it be needed (requires new submission)

Strengths:

• Modular: Designed for future upgrades and special models of the gunship to be developed. The vehicle section with magnetic clamps allow it to carry something for squads and support into the field

Weaknesses :

• (Provide, in list format, a minimum of 1 weaknesses of this submission.)

DESCRIPTION
Designed as a base model for a purely atmospheric version of the gunship. Much like an early model of the LAAT that was not designed to be used in space but instead just on the planets. THere is not as much in the ship with a small interior area that set up to let them bring in a vehicle as armor support with different squads. The vehicle bay's magnetic clamps holding simple sized vehicles like the skyfall. With its modular design that will allow the plating to be set up

hmmm a space variant and an atmospheric variant should do for it
