The AAG-10 gunship, or the Atmospheric Assault Gunship, is a multi-role transport utilized by the Union Defense Forces of the Galactic Union. They mainly serve as gunships and troop transports in the UDF Army. Besides serving as an infantry transport, the AAG-10 gunship is also used to provide air-to-ground and air-to-air support for Union forces. The front of the gunship has two double cockpits where the pilot and co-pilot/gunner sat in single file and can be sealed off from the rest of the gunship. A variety of equipment is located in the nose of the craft, including the flight computer and sensors.
