Dear ProZ members, a question on the term 空挺.
In a Japanese cartoon there is this combat machine called 'kuutei battlemover'. It is a robot that can host a pilot who controls it from the inside.
I see 空挺 is usually translated as 'airborne', but I was wondering whether you could explain me with your own words what the term means. Does it only implies that the machine can fly? I have checked some dictionaries, but that didn't solve my doubt.
Thank you very much!

Comment: "Thank you very much! I did find that meaning, but since it makes little sense in my case I thought it may be some strange implication behind. I guess it's just the author playing a bit with words."
