Clonecommando007 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) The Armored Infantry Dropship is my latest MOC, built for the 54th vs. 44th Corps Challenge at the CABG. The 222nd Legion, shortly before the return of the 9th Cavalry Regiment, recieved a shipment of Eight Squadrons (96) AIDs, 'Armored Infantry Dropships'. AIDs are a prototype vehicle, one of many in the Republic's ongoing 'Rapid Infantry Deployment' program. The AID has the ability to fly fast into a hot zone, evade enemy defenses, and drop a box pod carrying infantry into a hot zone, all without ever coming to a stand-still or hover. Fully Gallery Here, overview pictures below, including my poorly edited box art picture. Still learning Gimp. ;) Production Information Manufacturer: Roantha Heavy Engineering Product Line: Rapid Infantry Deployment, RID Model: Armored Infantry Dropship Class: Dropship Technical Specifications Length: 7.2 Meters Wingspam: 7.0 Meters Height: 3.1 Meters Maximum Speed: 710 Km/h Armament: 2x Medium Laser Cannons, 2x Z-6 Rotary Turrets, 2x Missile Pods, 4x Air to Air Rockets Crew: One Pilot, One Gunner Passengers: Four fully equipped Specialized Infantry Cargo: 12 cubic meters or 1x Medium Artillery Piece or 1x Speeder Bike or 1x Infantry Support Tank, all w/o passengers.

Tim Bit Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Great work! I hope to see this in action in your comic. It shows close resemblance to the LAAT. Keep up the good work Quote
Natman8000 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Wow, that is one good moc. It has good creativity, and the colors look swell. Great job. Quote
Dutch Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 nice moc i really like how you took the deployment idea from imperial dropship and put it in yor moc but one thing i would change would be the front of the ship and thats all Quote
Legoking Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I like the little dropship you have made. I can't believe that you can fit 4 clone troopers in that little transport section. Quote
Smithy_Boy Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Wow that MOC is amazing. I'm not a fan on how it looks, but it looks like a mini Larty. And i love that drop box feature, it's like the one in the Storm-trooper battle-pack but even better! Quote
kill will Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Nice! The cockpit has a very interesting design, as well as the large troop capacity. Quote
Mocha Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 looks pretty good, did you use the old rpgs pieces for it? Quote
CommanderCody77 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Very good but the front just looks a little boxy and I love the interior Please give us some instructions Quote
Future74 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I think it's very well designed! It looks like the LAAT and combines the function of the imperial dropship with the LAAT and it's small which makes it easy to handle and play with. I like the way the "container" opens when it's detached. Also the exit of the cockpit is a nice feature. Great work! Quote
L-space Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Now this is a funky little ship. Nice job you did here. It looks perfect for RAIDs Rapid Armored Infantry Deployement Quote
Clonecommando007 Posted February 26, 2009 Author Posted February 26, 2009 looks pretty good, did you use the old rpgs pieces for it? I made this from just scrap leftover white pieces; I didn't touch my Republic Gunship or even the Imperial Dropship. This is definantly not a mod or alternate of anything. And I don't plan on making instructions for this; it's a Legion - Exclusive MOC. Quote

Clonecommando I think you should change the front a little bit Quote
Palin Jax Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Impressive... Indeed, most Impressive. Exactly what any high-intensity battle zone Commander could use for those... hard to reach spots. Also, very compact, utilizing all available room. Out of curiosity, where do you deploy you munitions, or do the troops just carry their heat? Good work, Clonecommando007. Edited February 27, 2009 by Palin Jax Quote
