Gamma Corps A.G.A.T.H.A. Dropship
Posted: Sun Jun 05, 2011 2:53 am
Greetings, y'all.
I recently realized that, with the exception of my two Thermopylae fighters, the Gamma Corps is woefully lacking in air power. To remedy this, I built the A.G.A.T.H.A.* dropship, a versatile robotic aircraft that can fill the role of gunship, heavy vehicle transport, and troop shuttle.
*It stands for Autonomous Gunship, Arial Transport and Heavy Assault
First off, a quick 360.
These are the manipulators that allow the AGATHA to switch between roles quite rapidly, and lend the airframe its remarkable versatility.
Shown here transporting a DVX anti-armor vehicle.
The forward engines pivot, giving the AGATHA limited VTOL capabilities.
While I have yet to construct the troop pod, the gunship module is complete.
The main cannon fires 2 inch rail-slugs, which can be fragmenting rounds for decimating infantry, or depleted trygonium filled shells for penetrating armor. The pod also comes with a small missile rack for hitting more evasive targets, and a tracking array that gives the AGATHA detailed battlefield information, the better to see you with, the better to kill you with.
Immortals Beware!
