The yorik-trema or airskiff was a bio-engineered transport vessel used by the extragalactic Yuuzhan Vong invaders. Yorik-tremas resembled a bloated mass of molting tissue. Like the rest of Yuuzhan Vong technology, the vehicle was actually a complex organism. Whenever a planetary invasion began, hundreds of these craft were released from Koros-Strohna Worldships or other warships. The transports then fell rapidly towards the planet's atmosphere, descending in a straight line as if simply dropped. Because of their unusual landing pattern, the New Republic military labeled them "crates." As it descended into an atmosphere, the yorik-trema was protected by a thick shell from artillery fire covering its ventral surface. The shell was ablative and would wear away under heavy fire, however it also had regenerative properties and could heal quickly, even when under attack. Yorik-tremas were often escorted by several coralskippers but they were not unarmed. When attacked, the yorik-trema sprouted a pair of hornlike projections that were actually weapons capable of firing damaging plasma bolts at planetary weapons emplacements and even small, swift starfighters. The yorik-trema possessed several sensors that tracked the movements of its escort coralskippers and could also quickly identify enemy craft. These sensors resembled large, alien eyes. Each yorik-trema was divided into two sections. The forward section had only enough room for a pilot and a commander while the large rear section held up to 30 slave soldiers, mainly Chazrach, along with 6 full-fledged Yuuzhan Vong warriors. The yorik-trema could also carry vehicles. For landing, the yorik-trema had several sharp claws capable of landing on any terrain, even on rocky cliffs, snowy plains or buildings.
