Ummm I'm going to say

1. Bomber or heavy air support....or even a mega troop transport
2.turrets on top, bottom, and sides (front sides as there are thrusters in the rear)
3. At least the same armour as a tank
4.ummmm probably not a full orbital
5. One pilot, one copilot (to operate the bombing etc)

EDIT: stupid iOS autocorrect

really i dropship should have the same flight ceiling as a bomber or fighter dropships are trasport thats it and the bomber would have so sort of cloak to protect against fighters. its a flying tank basically

th dropship makes no sense it should reach the height of the bomber. you dont see troop transport ex. blackhawks or huey helicopters flying and taking out bombers. simply cause the flight ceiling is way different. the only thing that would have the same flight ceiling is a fighter but even then you would have to have line of sight.

The assault dropship can't even destroy a tank (believe my it took my incubus, and 2 forge gunners to wreck a Madrugar)

Agreed, I think the pic is of the heavy Caldari aircraft

Lol it was a hectic battle, I had swarms coming at me left right and centre.....I had to do lots of strafing runs to wreck that sucker

I love the ideas people are putting foreward, I hope ccp is reading these.

I really want to see it carry troops and a tank I side of it.

Yes we need the bigger maps and more people but just imagine....


You and your squad are defending an objective and the enemy just won't give up.....all of a sudden there is none.....no more raspberries show up. You wonder "what are they planning?"

Then.....you hear it...the hum of a dropship....only....it's a deeper hum...like its a monster dropship. You start looking at the sky trying to spot this monstrosity.

Then over the mountain comes a monstrous looking aircraft, it's got guns all over it. You tell the AV player in your squad to start taking it down....his attempts cannot deter the beast. The ship proceeds to hover right above the objective....then you see it....the back door opens and all of a sudden, troops start falling by the dozen....and then....you stand there frozen because of what your seeing.....

A blaster Madrugar dropped from the back of the ship. It starts tearing your squad apart and the other blueberries that so happen to be at the same objective. You start cursing and order all of your squad to retreat and regroup....your squadmates reply that they are either pinned down or dead.....10 seconds later.....the objective falls into red control.

I was looking through general discussion and found a thread that had a link to this artists creations.

After flipping through some of the artwork at the topi found this pic of what looks like a heavy aircraft bomber.

Please use this design!!!!!

Also, look through some other pieces of his, he's an amazing artist and has some cool looking stuff that would make Dust awesome!!!!!


EDIT: what do you guys think of this vehicle being able to carry tanks and other vehicles inside of it?

So it would fly around dropping tanks or jeeps etc on the battlefield.

I would honestly spend millions on purchasing this awesome looking beast of the sky
