The Cheyenne is a type of combat utility spacecraft manufactured by UA Northridge and primarily used by the United States Colonial Marine Corps. The Cheyenne is designed for rapid troop deployment, dropping from the belly of USCM spacecraft in orbit and delivering Marines and equipment quickly to a planet's surface. They typically carry the M577 Armored Personnel Carrier, although they can also be used to transport other equipment and even Marines directly in the field.

The UD-4 has the ability to take off and land vertically from unprepared sites, and can also operate as a ship-to-ship transport. Additionally, the Cheyenne has many variable weapons hardpoints and a fixed internal cannon, allowing it to be used in a gunship role in support of ground troops.
