G79H-TC Pelican

The G79H-TC/MA Pelican, more formally known as the Gunship 79 Heavy-Troop Carrier/Mobile Armory, is a more-heavily armed variant of the D79-TC Pelican dropship used by the United Nations Space Command in 2557.

Design details
The G79 is based on the redesigned fuselage of the standard D79 Pelican, featuring a similar twin-bubble canopy akin to that of the 21st century Mi-24 Hind gunship/attack helicopter. The gunship is armed with one nose-mounted autocannon and an M8C Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Cannon, a larger version of the infantry-issued "Spartan Laser". Its dorsal surface features a large turret-mounted cannon similar to that of a bomber, controlled through the gunner seat. A railgun turret is externally mounted on each side of the fuselage. Doubling as a mobile armory, the variant is also equipped with external racks allowing it to carry an abundance of weapons and ammunition.
