"We've got landers inbound!" "Here we go!" - A pair of New Republic Soldiers upon seeing several Delta T-5s approaching.

The "younger brother" to the old Delta T-3c class Shuttles of the Galactic Empire, the T-5, commonly referred to as the "Sith Shuttle" or "Sith Lander" serves as the primary infantry and cargo transport for the Sith Empire. The T-5 was developed by Sith Starship Engineers as a replacement for the Sentinel Landing Craft used by the Galactic Empire. While the Sentinel was and still is a versatile design and still sees some usage by the Sith Empire, the Sith have largely switched to using the T-5. The T-5 comes in three variations, all alphabetically designated. Most of the T-5s are equipped with the same armaments and defenses. The biggest differences are their interiors and layouts, depending on what they're intended for. A common feature for T-5s is the ability to for their autopilot functions to be linked to remote controls, such as those on a field commander, to summon or dismiss the T-5s remotely.

The T-5a (shown above) is nearly three times the size of their T-3c predecessors although they are only capable of carrying up to 50 soldiers as opposed to the Sentinel's default 54. However, what the T-5a lacks in cargo space, it makes up for in speed, maneuverability, and durability. The T-5a's armaments make it suitable for clearing landing zones and then deploying its host of infantry to the battlefield. The T-5a is primarily used by the Sith Army to deploy its infantry forces directly to the battlefield or to shuttle large contingents of troops between locations.

The Sith Navy uses the T-5a for boarding actions and for ferrying personnel to and from starships and space stations via airlock. The T-5a is equipped with a concealed airlock hatch on the bottom that allows the T-5a to dock with a ship or station in space. The lander needs only to roll ninety degrees in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction and align with the target airlock before engaging. Specially curved gravity plating allows for seamless transition between lander and destination.

Some T-5a landers are used as prison barges and can be identified by the fact that they're completely defenseless save for only a set of deflector shields. Their interiors are sectioned off to carry up to twenty individual humanoid prisoners.

The T-5b, which is usually identified by a pair of black double stripes on the wings, are the cargo haulers of the Sith Empire and have a smaller boarding ramp on the front. However, the smaller ramp is to make up for the much larger cargo bay doors on the underside of the shuttle to allow for the transport of Sith vehicles and cargo. Although they cannot transport some of the larger vehicles (Titan Y-90 Cargo Barges, a modern variation of the Y-85 AT-AT barge, is still used to transport the larger Sith war machines) the T-5b is still the go-to cargo and light vehicle hauler, capable of deploying walkers onto the battlefield without having to stop.

The Sith Navy uses T-5bs as well to deploy Sith Stormtroopers into Zero-G atmospheres for Zero-G combat or boarding actions.

The T-5c is the lighter, faster, and stealthier version of the T-5. The T-5c is painted up in all black and are equipped with sensor bafflers and other means of avoiding detection short of highly expensive stygian cloaking devices. The T-5c can still be seen with the naked eye, much like the Republic's StealthX variant of the X-Wing Starfighter. As can be expected with such technology, the Sith use the T-5c for covert insertions. Although usually only a handful of covert ops forces are deployed at a time, the T-5c typically carries a few of the Sith Empire's variant of the Dark Troopers for added fire support and can drop them onto the battlefield at a moment's notice. Additionally the T-5c is also utilized to deploy Sith probe droids and can carry up to 9 hyperspace pods, each pod carrying up to 3 probe droids each. Typical operating procedure for probe deployments involves jumping into an optimum deployment zone (within a few lightyears of one or more target destinations), deploying the pods, and then jumping back.

Finally, the T-5d is used exclusively by high ranking Sith Officers. The T-5d is painted up in all white like the old Lambda class shuttle of the Galactic Empire and has more personal accommodations available. Like the T-5c, the T-5d has stealth equipment installed to allow the shuttles travel in secret if necessary. Each T-5d is equipped with an array of information feeds and tactical displays that allows the T-5d to act as a mobile command post if necessary, allowing the officers aboard to strategize from relative safety.

The Sith Empress, Darth Akul, utilizes a T-5d referred to in call signs as "Imperial 1" which was the same call sign used by any vessel of the old Galactic Empire that carried the Emperor at a given time. Akul's private T-5d is regally adorned on the interior and features far more luxuries than the others while still providing the same strategic displays as the others.
