Armored Infantry Dropship (AID) Build Off entry

The 222nd Legion, shortly before the return of the 9th Cavalry Regiment, recieved a shipment of Eight Squadrons (96) AIDs, 'Armored Infantry Dropships'. AIDs are a prototype vehicle, one of many in the Republic's ongoing 'Rapid Infantry Deployment' program. The AID has the ability to fly fast into a hot zone, evade enemy defenses, and drop a box pod carrying infantry into a hot zone, all without ever coming to a stand-still or hover.

Wow... It looks really good and I like the box drop off part.

LOL. I can imagine it now....

Sir! We need reinforcements now!

Copy that! Send in the AIDs! And maybe some Malaria!

That was funny PD...

Anyway, that gunship/dropship is sweet CC! I like how you used the Imp BP's drop off technique!

Funny name, but nice ship! Although I'm not to sure about the front...

Epic Win man, Epic Win. Also its worthy of a sig too.

I agree with TB. Very nice, CC. The only thing I suggest is to put the cockpit at an angle...it looks too...sudden, for lack of a better word...

Nice dude. Do you think you could make instructions for this?

Instructions...definantly not. A. That would require me taking this apart and taking pictures of it piece by piece. B. I don't make instructions of my custom legion-exclusive models, sorry.

Wow, thats pretty cool. I like the dropship part. But is it just me or do the wings seem just a little small for a ship that size?

CC- Ok well atleast now I know that about you.

While your cropping abilities leave much to be desired, your MOC'ing do! Those side rotary cannons are very nice, so is the troop bay. If the Republic Gunship is comprable to the Blackhawk, this is the MH-6 Little Bird .

I think you are one of the lest noticed great builders on this site.

Fantastic job, though your pictures are always a little to dark for my likeing. It's small, compact, and seems to have a lot packed in there!

wow... nice job on the guns and troop bay

Admin - Use proper capitalization and punctuation.

Yeah, thats why I never post instructions, I like my vehicles to be '704th only'.

Anyhow, looks pretty awesome! We're gonna have some competition here, eh?

Bwargh I need to make something awesome but I have no idea.

Ok well I think thats a good idea...after having thought it over. I'm really wondering how the "cheeks" are attched. Can you explain CC? And no I am not trying build this.

I know what he should make but I'm like a closed zippa right now.

Uhuh, yeah. Whatever you say.

And Uber, your UBERAWESOMENESS will think of something, or just copy one of these vehicles and modify it a bit.

Thats the way to go Uber. It will get you any where in life...

Awesome! I love the drop pod and the chain guns. Are you going to tell us how you made them, because I figuered out, and I won't tell if you don't want me to.

Technically, the design was from Wuzzup a couple of months (6-8) ago, so yeah.

Or atleast CC's using a MODIFIED design.

Yeah I was about to ask the same but i'll try it on my own.
