Description and Notes
Fleet data: This atmosphere-capable ship, one of the workhorses of the Romulan navy, acts as ground troop support rather than engaging in space-based combat. Able to carry up to twelve fully-equipped Romulan troopers, the Drop Ship lifts off from a larger ship (such as a D'deridex-class warbird), descends under cover of its cloak through a planet's atmosphere to the surface, and drops off its "passengers" where they're most needed. Of course, it can also make a return trip to pick the soldiers up after they've completed their mission or when emergency evacuation proves necessary. In case it's detected and attacked on the way to or from its mother ship, the Drop Ship carries Type H disruptors and a complement of 12 Mark II plasma torpedoes.
