Atlesian Dropship

The Atlesian Dropship (unofficial) is an aerial vehicle operated by the Kingdom of Atlas in RWBY. It is first glimpsed in the episode "Welcome to Beacon" and makes a fuller appearance in "Breach", aiding the Huntsmen and Huntresses of Vale against the Grimm.

Description
The Atlesian dropship is a light transport aircraft, complementing the much larger airships also operated by the Atlesian military. Its primary role appears to be transporting troops into hot battlezones, and it also appears to be capable of performing a limited close air support role. In this capacity, it can be compared to the armed variant of the Bullhead.

The dropship has an angular appearance and consists of a cockpit section and a rear transport section. The aircraft's engines appear to be mounted on articulated nacelles at the ends of each wing. The passenger cabin is capable of carrying at least ten Atlesian Knight-200 androids, with a single aft door/ramp allowing its complement to quickly alight. In the episode "Breach", the dropship is seen deploying a number of androids by free-fall airdrop.

As air support, the dropship appears to be armed with a set of dual gatling guns, with which it is able to engage ground targets.
