Orca Dropships were heavy duty military freighters, capable of transporting large amounts of soldiers, mechs and other equipment at long ranges. They replaced the old cargo planes of the first war. They were equipped with four powerful engines, allowing them to even ferry the dreaded Mammoth Mk. II. They had no offensive weaponry.
Their role was delivering forces into the designated combat zones, allowing a quick deployment of a substantial GDI force. Due to their price and fragility, the Dropships were rarely, if ever, placed under the mission commander's authority.
A number of dropships were equipped with atmospheric entry thermal shields and significantly more powerful engines, allowing them to land on the GDSS Philadelphia.
They are known to crash during Ion storms, like all other aircraft. It is not known if GDI still utilizes this vehicle.
