"The Gue'la were heavily entrenched upon the hill, my squad pinned under their fire. Suddenly, an AX-3-4 bombarded the enemy position. My unit dashed up the hill to finish off what was left, only to see the the Orca had left only bare ground for us to look upon. By the Ethereals, I had never seen a more devastating weapon, nor do I wish to see it ever used again." -Shas'El Kais Bork'an, on one of the first documented cases of Sickleback deployment.      
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
An altered pattern to the Orca AX-3-4 Dropship, designed for active insertion into hotspots, rather than rapid transport flexible deployemt. The Orca AX-3-4 loses a chunk of its transport capacity in the name of improved armour and fire-power.
