Description: The Haran-class gunship is a heavily armed craft that can insert troops even amidst the most withering defense.
The Haran can push through planetary defenses, brushing off fighters, and into planetary assault, dodging and absorbing anti-aircraft fire while dealing out substantial punishment with its own armament.
Once pushed through, the gunship delivers its thirty five troops and then can provide close air support.
Developed to be non-reliant on capital ships, the Haran has its own hyperdrive. Also equipped with moderate shielding to improve survivability.
The barrel-like clusters on either side of the cockpit are advanced sensory arrays, that can map terrain and take a wide variety of vital information in seconds. Thus, the ship can navigate adverse conditions well and is well equipped to deliver airborne troops safely and with precision.
This gunship is designed to be a well-rounded assault craft at the cost of having an increased unit cost and upkeep. The drawback of all of this is that each loss is more of a blow - albeit if one can bring down one of these Angels from Hell.
