This new drop ship is to replace the ancient valkyrie drop ships with superior performance, survivability and a smaller form factor

Designed with fusion-powered reactionless drives, this compact but powerful drop ship can rapidly transport a section of troops and supplies, plus a light armored vehicle, to and from a planetary surface. It is capable of longer-ranged flights, as well, limited only by its lack of a habitat. It uses a streamlined hull massing 100 tons (SM +6) and is 24 meters long.

All the bays form a single 30 ton bay.
