This is a blurred, long-distance shot I got of the trials of the new Ground Assault drop-ship. It's designed to berth on a Nova Class Dreadnought and go planetside, full of Ground Pounders. The drop-ships look really clever from what I can tell. They have VTOL capability with vectored thrust nozzles, allowing them to hover and bring fire to bear while other craft are landing their troops. I guess it should be a real bonus if we end up in another fight like the Earth-Minbari War.
You know, all this talking is getting me a real dry throat. A man could die of thirst out here! C'mon guys, it's your tab! Alright, you're my man! That's splash one to the boys from Zeta Wing. By the way, I hear that the Captain of the EAS Agamemnon has just arrived on the station. If you wanna know anything about EarthForce capital ships, he's the man with the inside information, you with me? You could try the Commander's office; they sometimes meet for briefings there.
