With the bit about penny slicing them from the sky, Monty snuck that in without approval. Slicing things in half was a running gag behind he scene. Besides, given the ease with which those beams cut through aircraft, I doubt the dropships would have done much better.

Not to mention that the only durability indicator we got from the dropships was 8 robots with assault rifles gunning for cyborg, in the cockpit, armed with a potent handgun that has a secondary barrel for explosive rounds. Not many aircraft come out of that smiling, particularly when they're packed so tightly.

Given how tiny the engines on the dropship are, you'd probably be able to get greater thrust from a Bullhead's engines with more resources, and access to mil-spec technology.

While their pieces are slimmer, I'm not sure she has that much smaller of a landing space requirement.
