Armed Assault Boat

Armed Assault Boats were aerial vehicles used by the UNSC Navy and UNSC Marine Corps to deploy Orbital Drop Shock Troopers to a ground target. They were the primary space drop technique used by the ODST's (among parachute insertion). However, the armed assault boats proved to be ineffective, taking heavy fire once within ground firing range and they were also very slow. The UNSC Navy had ultimately come up with a more expensive, but efficient, space drop vehicle, namely the HEV.
