C-9979 landing craft

The C-9979 landing craft, also known as the Trade Federation landing ship, was a heavy transport starship used by the Trade Federation, and later the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Trade Federation armaments committee chose the ship. The C-9979 was an elegantly designed transport manufactured by Haor Chall Engineering Corporation and was controlled by a central computer. One C-9979 could subjugate an entire susceptible world.

The C-9979 was a heavily armed multi-vehicle and troop transport and landing craft utilized by the Trade Federation and Confederacy of Independent Systems to deploy invasion armies to planets it intended to occupy or for massive offensives against heavy enemy forces. It was manned by a small crew of droids, in keeping with the Federation's policy of reliance on automation; these manned the topside control center and Control Ship signal reception antennas, operated the ship's wingtip and hull weapons and repair shops as well the maintenance bays where individual B1-series battle droids were realigned after every battle.
