The CR25 troop carrier, more commonly known as the Republic dropship, was a multi-purpose dropship used to deploy units of clone troopers and gunships in battlefronts where the use of an Acclamator I-class assault ship was deemed too impractical.

[edit] Characteristics
The clone commandos and Galactic Marines favored the CR25 over the CR20, because it had more cargo space, could hold four to eight LAAT/i gunships, and had ports for null gravity space debarking.
[edit] History
The CR25 was known as the "bigger brother" of the CR20 troop carrier, commonly known as the Republic carrier.
Delta Squad traveled in a CR25 and used its debarking ports to board the captured assault ship Prosecutor.
