rdfs:comment
  • The craft was equipped with four turboshaft engines, giving it great stability. Its cargo hold could be used to transport personnel and light ordnance rapidly across great distances. The light construction of the vehicle and its lack of armour made it vulnerable to any kind of anti-aircraft weaponry, however. GDI used these aircraft for the purpose of evacuating infantry from combat zones or combat rescues of civilians. Vulnerabilities limited them to operations where enemy air defenses had been neutralized.

  • The craft was equipped with four turboshaft engines, giving it great stability. Its cargo hold could be used to transport personnel and light ordnance rapidly across great distances. The light construction of the vehicle and its lack of armour made it vulnerable to any kind of anti-aircraft weaponry, however. GDI used these aircraft for the purpose of evacuating infantry from combat zones or combat rescues of civilians. Vulnerabilities limited them to operations where enemy air defenses had been neutralized. At the beginning of the Second Tiberium War, when a Nod base behind the attack on GDI's Phoenix Base was targeted for destruction, two Orca Transports flying ahead of the GDI attack force to evacuate civilians in the area were each destroyed by a single hit from Nod SAM sites. The Orca Transport was replaced by the newer V-35 Ox transports by the Third Tiberium War.
