One of the drop pods used by the Second Company to execute daring planetary assaults. The pods can carry ten Marines, five Terminators, or even a Dreadnought. Once the passengers are loaded, the pod is fired out of an orbital vessel at the besieged planet. Because of their speed and size, drop pods are almost impossible targets for ground weapons crews, which makes their use against fortified positions ideal. When the pod hits the ground, the doors drop open and its passengers flood out, weapons blazing. In some cases, a drop pod will contain only weapons, such as missile launchers or assault cannons. This drop pod is a standard five man drop pod. The kit came with five Marines strapped into the walls, but I decided not to use them. This way, it can be legitimately used for Marines, Terminators, or Dreadnoughts. Also, I modified the doors to contain magnets, so they'll stay closed when I close them. Lastly, this vehicle's name - Eternus - is a reflection of how long it took me to paint this thing.
