The '''Drop-Capsule''' is a gigantic version of the [[Drop-pod]], used by some [[Titan Legion]]s to deploy [[Imperial Titan|their Titans]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
==Description==
The size of a [[Hab|hab-block]], the cylindrical Drop-Capsule is big enough to deploy a single [[Imperator Titan]] to the surface of a planet. It is equipped with guidance fins and retro-rockets to slow and control its descent. Upon landing, the Drop-Capsule makes the earth shake and produces a shockwave with the power of its impact. Then, the sides of the Drop-Capsule drop down, allowing the Titan to disembark.{{Fn|1}}
==History==
During the initial phase of the [[Battle of Istvaan III]], a Drop-Capsule was used to deploy the ''[[Dies Irae]]'' to the surface of [[Istvaan III|the planet]].{{Fn|1}}
