The term '''landing craft''' was used to describe a [[Starship/Legends|starship]] that served as a [[Transport/Legends|transport]] for armed forces between a [[Capital ship/Legends|capital ship]] and the surface of a [[Planet/Legends|planet]]. The limit of occupants depended upon the size of the craft, which could be anything from the size of a shuttle to a [[Corellian Corvette]]. They were usually deployed to land infantry [[Soldier/Legends|soldiers]], vehicles, and supplies to engage an enemy in combat.

Many landing craft carried small defensive [[Blaster/Legends|blasters]] or no weaponry at all. However, the craft's [[Armor/Legends|armor]] were usually thick to prevent the craft from being destroyed before it reached the surface.
