The Orca Transport was a lightly armoured transportation craft, utilized by GDI to transport personnel and light ordnance rapidly across great distances. The light construction of the vehicle and its lack of armor made it vulnerable to any kind of anti-aircraft weaponry.
GDI used these aircraft for the purpose of evacuating infantry from combat zones, or combat rescues of civilians. Their vulnerablility limited them to operations where enemy air defenses had been neutralized. At the beginning of the Second Tiberium War when a Nod base behind the attack on GDI's Phoenix base was targeted for destruction, two Orca Transports flying ahead of the GDI's attack force were each destroyed by a single hit from Nod SAM batteries.
After the Second Tiberium War, the Orca Transport was replaced by the V-35 Ox transport.
