ok, you;re down ion a planet, evacing wounded from a cylon attack, how does the equiopment get from the top of a very tall ship to the ground where it's needed. Or the wounded up to the loading hatch?

Effective med vac or emoergency vehicles need to be able to get feet (and gear) on the dirt ASAP. Top loading doesn't always work very well.

Now, if this is doing this only in urbanized AOs (areas of operation) or within the fleet, then it will work.

If this was designed as a cargo ship or med evac/delivery ship, you'll need a ground lift or loading ramp.
