The MV-24H Vulture is a heavy dropship used to ferry troops or armour from one location to another, depending on the configuration of the cargo bay.
The Vulture can also forgo a passenger module to carry cargo or heavy weapons if a ground bombardment is needed. Its default armament is a .60cal minigun and heat-seeking air-to-air missiles, although the missile tubes can be outfitted for different types of ammunition.
Vultures are primarily used by Mjcommie's forces. Stylesrj's Space Mercenaries also have one with them, as a gift from Mjcommie.
Unlike other dropships, the Vulture is incapable of travelling from a planet into space.
