Descripción
Towards the end of the System war, conflict between the United System Alliance a the Imperium had changed from all out invasion tactics, to fast a aggressive hit a run assaults. With both sides lunching small heavy armoured forces from high orbit for rapid assaults on enemy emplacements. At first this seemed to be executed far easier by the Imperium due to their primary use of battledroids rather then human combatants, with the U.S.A quickly learning this. Seeing that conventional heavy landing craft were to slow a cumbersome for this style of combat. The U.S.A issued a contract for the development of a rapid deployment heavy dropship, capable of being lunched from the outer atmosphere a with the ability to quickly land a deploy tanks, artillery a mech divisions in almost any situation. The result of this was the MX70 Condor created by the STIAM Corporation. A versatile high speed dropship that could also perform bombing runs, provide air support for ground forces a even undertake reconnaissance mission. First put into service on March 10th 3998, the Condor saw great success in the war, seemingly giving the U.S.A forces the advantage needed over the Imperium.Initially created with 2 variants, the MX70a designed to carry 2 tank or artillery units a the MX70b designed to carry 4 mech units, the Condors versatility inspired a 3rd variation. The MX70r advanced recon a espionage which carried 2 Tactical Reconnaissance Droids. Despite being quite expensive, Condors were mass produced a within 7 months had become the main heavy dropship for 80% of the Alliance fleets, a although they had a smaller carrying capacity then earlier dropships, their size meant more could be carried. Meaning fleets did not have to sacrifice on ground force sizes. Although highly successful, the Condor only saw a limited service duration in the 61 year long System War. This was due to the war coming to an unexpected end bought about by the Symbiont invasion of Sol in the year 4000. 89% of the Condors produced were lost in the first week of the invasion as well as the complete destruction of the STIAM Corp. facilities, meaning no further production of the Condors would occur. All remaining ships were bought to ether Mars or Earth a in February 4001 the newly formed Last Earth Alliance ordered the 300 remaining vessels be reconfigured for new combat strategies, for a more successful use against the Symbiont. The result was the MX70c, designed to carry the newly developed PAAT (Plasma cannon All terrain Assault Tank), as well as 2 newly developed Marauder Class ASU?s Combat Frames. The MX70c was also fitted with Plasma based weaponry instead of the conventional projectile weapons previous models had been fitted with. Like it had during the System War, the Condor once again proved itself in the war against the Symbiont, but due to lack of production its influence on the battlefield slowly began to disappear. This was somewhat countered by the introduction of the XTZ Vulture in 4013. However it would never prove to be as efficient as the Condor. The Condors service finale came to an end in 4039, with the final 9 vessels being decommissioned due to the lack of resources to maintain them.
