Long Range Centennial Gunship

The Long Range Centennial Gunship, otherwise known as the Duskcreekburgh Troop Transport or LRCG, is a small aerial vessel used to ferry troops and give support, suppressive, and heavy hitting fire. When bigger ships couldn't land, or if it wasn't tactically sound, these ships would do that job.

Characteristics
LRCGs are high performance ships that had the capacity to transport a full platoon of soldiers, into the thicket of battle. Commonly seen deploying and covering fire, they remain in battle, not needing to return to carriers for ammo or fuel. They not only shoot regular sized cannons and gatling guns for anti-infantry, vehicle, and plane roles, but also wields a heavier cannon for tougher targets. This versitalility, including the ability for troops to fire whilst being deployed. Once near the target or landing zone, troops are expected to jump, slide, or climb down the side ladders, which are infront of the gatling gun emplacements.

When it came to armor and speed, these two factors were balanced out. Although it's design isn't the most aerodynamic, it's engine speed boosted the speeds of this large ship, for it's class, to a better then average speed for it's dimensions. However, with it's hull, only it's thickest part of the hull is located at the upper base (painted blue), and on it's heavy turret. The bottom and other parts of the ship, such as the engines and underside, are thinner, the underside incapable of withstanding a regular cannon shot. This weakness make's most experienced captains try to remain in low orbit.
