The Imperial Dropship was a Galactic Empire dropship type. It had two engines, flanked by maneuvering fins, and a front cockpit. The dropship could be piloted by a shadow stormtrooper or a regular stormtrooper and could transport a squad of up to four stormtroopers on a detachable platform at its back.
The craft had three variants, with two of them featuring a pair of laser cannons and another pair of the configurations having external racks for personal blasters. During the Galactic Civil War, Imperial Dropships were used in two engagements in desert where they either deployed stormtroopers or fought Rebel Alliance forces .
