Half-Life 2 Hints
Combine Dropship
Health: infinite (you can't destroy them)
Attack Damage: 2 per bullet
First Seen: Water Hazard, Section 1
Combine dropships aren't really enemies to be fought directly, but instead are big flying troop carriers that drop cops, soldiers, APCs, and other fightable enemies in combat zones. Whenever you see a dropship fly overhead, be on the lookout for what the ship dropped. (Note that they sometimes take shots at you with their single gun, so try to stay out of their line of sight.)
