The '''Low Orbit Carrier''' is a type of specialised low-orbit vessel used by the [[Astra Militarum]] to deploy infantry to a planetary surface.{{Fn|1}}
==Description==
Hovering 50,000 feet above the ground, the Low Orbit Carrier is equipped with a massive anti-grav generator projecting a cone directly to the surface. [[Guardsmen]] can now step into this grav-cone and fall to the ground at speed without requiring a [[grav-chute]] or sustaining injuries. Extreme rare, the Low Orbit Carrier is also extremely vulnerable during operations, requiring precise station-holding to keep the grave-cone from swinging widely and letting guardsmen plunge to their death.{{Fn|1}}
