Description (Specifications)

Selected AssaultRon Units

1. 9705th Assault Invasion Squadron
2. 10897th Imperial Assault Transport Squadron

History & Background (Dossier)

AssaultRons tend to be homogeneous units, each equipped with only one type of ship. Thus, the 10897th Imperial Assault Transport Squadron would be equipped for troop transport, while the 9705th Assault Invasion Squadron would be equipped to deliver the troops to an invasion beachhead on a world surface.
