Sentinel-class landing craft/Legends

The Sentinel-class Landing Craft was a transport used by the Empire to carry troops or supplies. It was shortly introduced before the Battle of Yavin and became the main troop transport.

It could carry approximately six Stormtrooper squads or 54 Stormtroopers. It´s weapons consisted of 8 laser cannons, 2 concussion missiles launchers, 1 ion cannon and 2 repeating blasters. When converted to carrying supplies, it could carry 36 74-Z speeder bikes or 12 compact assault vehicles like AT-STs and AT-PTs. Its total cargo capacity was 180 metric tonnes.

It was similar to it´s cousin, the Lambda-class shuttle because it featured three wings. (A central wing mounted on the top of the craft and two side mounted wings.)

It first appeared in A New Hope, where it was shown taking off after deploying a party of Sandtroopers into the desert world Tatooine.
