Warlord Games: "Drop Leader Lu Raul’s eyes fixed upon the glittering array of his suit’s interface as external temperature and pressure rapidly soared. He scanned the drop envelope. The squad was keeping formation in his wake as they were programmed to do. The shard would hold them steadily through the first phase of the drop. After that they were on their own."
Concord Drop Troops are equipped with Grav chutes - also known as anti-gravity or AG chutes, which enable them to drop more accurately onto a target. Whereas Strike Troops rely entirely upon transmat beams and suspensor capsules to deliver them to their destination - Drop Troops can use their anti-gravity chutes to control their descent, manoeuvring as they fall, and even changing their drop trajectory if necessary.
Once landed grav-chutes give troopers supreme mobility, enabling Drop Troops to undertake forward operations such as securing landing zones and undertaking scouting missions - however they also work alongside Strike Squads in combined operations in order to wrest control of areas from their enemies.
