Overall, the craft is almost identical to the military D77H-TCI variant used by the [[UNSC Marine Corps]], with the exception of its police livery and a number of additions, including a high-speed camera on the bow of the dropship to monitor traffic and a rescue cable at the rear of the troop bay. The standard Pelican's missiles and guns have been completely removed, replaced for civilian use with optical and sensory surveillance systems for the tracking and seizing of fugitives as well as addressing large-scale emergencies.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} Each of these dropships is armed with an [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun]] in the troop bay.
