Eaglemoss Alien & Predator Starships Alien Dropship Edition 3

ALIEN & PREDATOR STARSHIPS: ALIEN DROPSHIP - EDITION 3. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Alien & Predator Starships: Alien Dropship - Edition 3 Also known as "Cheyenne, " the UD-4 Utility Dropship is the signature tactical transport of the United States Colonial Marine Corps; a space-capable vessel designed to swiftly deploy troops from orbit.

Parked aboard a larger spacecraft, the Cheyenne can rapidly relay troops, supplies, and heavy equipment - including an armored vehicle - to any point on the planetary surface, with VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) capability enabling it to handle even rugged terrain. During the movie Aliens, the Cheyenne saw use in the ill-fated expedition to LV-426, ferrying Ripley, Burke, and a squad of marines to the doomed colony. These dropships ultimately became Ripley's lifeline off the infested planet, but they also proved alarmingly susceptible to infiltration - as the Xenomorph Queen lurked in the landing gear..
