Saurian Dynamics Orbital Landing Craft (Vanilla)

The first Terran ships to hit Martian soil in the Second Colonial War of 2073 were Saurian Dynamics OLC-U/La landing craft. Roaring down to the dusty plain below, they carried the second-line elements of the 14th Orbital Marine division; tanks and gunships, and much-needed supplies. Through countless trips ferrying reinforcments and casualties between the embattled marines and the ESC fleet in orbit, they would come to play a pivotal part in the Siege of Oxia and eventual victory by Terrestrial coalition forces.

Although by now a well aged design, The Saurian Dynamics Orbital Landing Craft (Utility/Light Atmospheric) has proven itself over the years as a versatile and reliable orbital insertion platform, forming the logistical backbone of ESC orbital divisions in operations around the Terrestrial planets.


Dual Hydrogen thruster arrays give a half a million tons of lifting capacity, with onboard fuel for multiple orbital insertions under 1G influence. Although the OLC-U/La is not rated for orbital reentry on high-atmosphere bodies, electric turbines provide auxiliary lift for extended operations in light atmosphere. The OLC-U/La provides a fully pressurized crew compartment for a pilot, systems specialist, and loadmaster- with accommodations for limited independent sailing. The reconfigurable loading deck conveyor network provides a set of optimal positions to efficiently secure a variety of vehicles and atmospheric aircraft. The Mod 4.11 variant in use today is equipped with a defensive armament suite consisting of dual 25mm independant CIWS turrets, four 7.62mm antipersonnel mounts, and a single 200mm KSWH Multipurpose Rocket Battery.
