Description[edit]
Designed expressly for the purpose of transporting battle armor, the Shun Transport VTOL was an excellent transport vehicle that could ignore most terrain and insert up to three squads of battle armor infantry deep into enemy territory, protected by its advanced stealth systems.[1]
The Shun was protected by six tons of Stealth Armor and powered by a GM extralight fusion engine that allowed it to travel at speeds approaching 120 km/h. The Shun also incorporated both a TAG system and an advanced Targeting Computer.[1]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
Due to its battlefield mission the Shun carried only two Mydron Mini Magshot Gauss Rifles as offensive weapons, mounted into the front of the Shun alongside the TAG system and supplied from a single ton of ammunition stored in the body of the vehicle.[1]
Variants[edit]
As of 3145 there were no variants of the Shun in service.[1]
