Kapitel 130: Retaking Sorus (4)

Led by Guzman, the Scouts took to the sky. They kept climbing steadily and matched the elevation of the Goliaths flying in from the northeast. 

These heavily armored troop carriers were much slower than Phoenix choppers, sacrificing speed for durability and carrying capacity. With a top speed of ninety miles per hour, they were not ideal for transporting troops over long distances, but they could move the heavy machines across zones more efficiently than any ground vehicles.

The average Goliath was a heavily armored aircraft with two turbine engines mounted on the underside of two massive gray wings. The stock models reached 200 feet in length and had a cargo hold capacity of 700 cubic tons. While most Goliaths were unarmed, a few advanced variants carrying fighter drones had also been spotted during the early days of the machine mutiny.
