Troika-class

Familiarly known as "chariots", Troika-class dropships are most often utilized to bring a complement of marines from an orbiting vessel to the surface of a planet. The MCRN utilizes the Troika-class on board the Scirocco-class assault cruiser and the Donnager-class battleships, and can host a dozen Recon Marines suited up with Goliath powered armor in addition to a complement of standard Martian Marines, making best use of the utilitarian space by cramming in as many bodies as possible.
In true MCRN fashion, the vessels themselves are armed and dangerous in their own right, and can travel quite a distance from their mothership on their thrusters, making them far more advanced than other dropships. While the Troika-class has the capabilities to make somewhat long treks away from their berth, this is hardly an ideal situation if it’s filled with marines. Ultimately, these ships are designed to drop through the atmosphere quickly and efficiently with their blocky underbelly cutting through and smashing into the ground safely.
