Named after one of the apex predators that live on the Anvil one of the planets that orbit around Damascus Station and like their name sake the Thunderbird Assault Carrier lives up to its name sake. Like the massive predator the general tactics for the flyer is to either attack head on heedless of any danger or attempt to come in from the preys blind stop and catching it unawares.
Designed and made as part of a group effort in an attempt to make a dedicated assault craft that was capable of delivering its cargo of troops regardless of weather or not the enemy ship hand its hanger open or not, or even to move troops or VIPs very quickly from A to B. Interestingly when choosing the crew for the Thunderbird Assault Carrier both pilot and Angel are picked for their aggression and willingness to complete the mission no matter the odds.
