Although initially successful, the Bantam Dropship quickly found itself out of use, when the reality of Naval Combat and technological advancements meant that boarding operations rarely occured. The Bantam became popular among the Border Guard, who still did boarding on a regular basis during patrols. However, the dropship was overkill for this role, and it was still decided that something more compact and efficient was needed for the job.

Thus, the Bantam II was developed as a replacement, and with a role as a more general lostical shuttle. The Bantam II lacks the weapons of the first, but its compact size means that it can easily fit into smaller class naval ships and ferry crew and supplies from one ship to another. The Border Guard likewise took up the replacement model, favoring it over its predecessor for its efficiency, and needing little in the way of the predecessor's weaponry anyway.

The Bantam II is lightweight, maneuverable, and able to fit in any 3x5x2 hangar.
