The Coffin dropship was originally designed as a multipurpose dropship for the Zweihander Union, delivering troops from orbit and giving supporting fire as they are landed, then fly back to pick up more. It is also designed to be hardy enough to pick the troops back up and take them back to their orbiting ships for evacuation if needed or even carry out wounded safely. Its major weakness is against things like enemy fighters which means it would need support too and from the drop zone as most of its weapons that it carries are meant to help the troops clear the area around the drop zone of infantry, emplacements, heavy vehicles before dropping their payload and making another run.
