Wyvern class

The Wyvern-class (commonly called the "Hopper") was a type of Federation planetary troop transport that entered service in 2363. (LUG RPG: )

The Wyvern came in several variants, the standard version was built to carry around 30 troops from orbit to the surface and from various locations on the ground. Other variants existed that were larger and could carry more personnel and even ground vehicles. The Wyvern lacked a warp drive and needed to be ferried from system to system by a warp capable vessel.

They were equipped with a number of personnel transporters to allow for quick deployment. If transporters were unusable the craft had a number of side doors to allow for quick disembarkation.
