Technically a Transport: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Warhammer 40,000]]'' has Valkyrie Airborne Assault Carrier - troop transport <s>helicopter</s> aircraft/hovercraft (12 + crew including two door gunners) that is also gunship. And its variant Vendetta is a minor transport (for 6) / heavy gunship (tank-killer), vehicle/container transport variant Sky Talon is still a gunship, if more modestly armed<ref>this can be metagame motivated: seeing how Sky Talon is small enough to delivers only a pair of [[Chicken Walker|Sentinel]]s which can be dropped with a grav chute, and with less risk of interception, or Tauros, which is a fast vehicle anyway, on tabletop (already starting at a battlefield) it's mostly useless as a transport and mostly is just a discount gunship thrown in with those vehicles, while [[In-Universe]] it should be good as a transport for scouts (who use either of those vehicles) and (being a fast, vertically landing, armoured flying transport) immeasurably more valuable for resupply of units that cannot be easily reached by ground transport; at least in ''[[Dawn of War]] 2'' it drops ''[[The Turret Master|turrets]]''.</ref>; though more versatile gunship variant Vulture is not a transport.

* ''[[Star Wars]]''. The Millennium Falcon. Originally a stock light freighter, but has since been upgraded with souped up drives, heavy-duty quad laser cannons, concussion missiles, and a sensor suite that's like seeing the future. And, insanely enough, Mandalorian Kom'rk ("Gauntlet starfighter") is both a [[Space Fighter]] and troop transport.

** AT-AT ("All Terrain Armored Transport") is APC / heavy self-propelled artillery hybrid.
