General Information

The "Lightning" is the second UFO-based craft that the R&D department have developed.
Whilst its primary role is that of troop transporter, unlike the Skyranger it also has a single hardpoint for mounting a weapon.
The "Lightning" is looked down upon by the majority of X-COMs Commanders. Whilst it is a significantly faster craft than the Skyranger, it cannot carry Heavy Weapons Platforms to missions, and has a reduced cargo area.
Special Requirements
The "Lightning" craft is fuelled by Elerium-115. Before manufacturing this craft, ensure that you have sufficient stocks of Elerium in your general stores.
One "Lightning" requires 6 units of Elerium for refuelling.
