Technically it isn't a bioweapon. It's a terraformer. Something any spacefaring civ worth its salt would have.

[Taricus]

Without a delivery system and all, I can't really vote for it even on a pragmatic basis.

Infantry Armour:
Manufactured from the same materials as the drop-pods heat shields, this armour is intended the clad the wearer in a an resilient barrier capable of protecting the wearer from harm.

[~Neri]

.. We could literally just disperse the seeds in the upper atmosphere. We wouldn't even need a real delivery system. Seeds won't be particularly damaged from the fall and they'd land all over the place.

[Taricus]

...Okay, now it's just boring.

[~Neri]

No, it's p sensible. We have orbital superiority. We should press that advantage.

[Taricus]

Yeah, but this being a game, things wouldn't be fun for either side that way.

Adaptive Soldier

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A standard armored soldier with new biological adaptation to survive in the harsh oxygenated atmosphere.  External membranes are reinforced and new internal systems respond to punctures in armor with oxygen absorbing foaming blood.  An alternative "lung" system can be activated and deactivated to allow long term survival outside our native atmosphere.  Normal infantry armor has been altered to better withstand the standard explosive and projectile weapons used by the natives.

Combat Dropship

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Using the new fusion scramjet as the primary engine with rockets for final landing and escaping the upper atmosphere, this dropship has improved maneuverability, though not as much as the drone due to armor and payload.  Simple Heat shielding has been upgraded to real armor designed to defend against the standard weapons used so far as well as heat penetrating missiles.  Two laser cannons have been added for point defense and supporting ground forces once landed.

Hunter-Killer Drones

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Very small drones designed to operate near the surface, uses a miniature atmospheric Scramjet to jump up then wings to glide.  Armed with a single laser and an independent AI to find and eliminate targets according to preset orders (military, infrastructure, indiscriminate) then hide while searching for more targets.

[Taricus]

Alright, I'll support that dropship.

[VoidSlayer]

War-Badgers

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Packs of genetically enhanced badgers, larger then normal with strength increases and armor standard for our soldiers.  Armed with razor sharp claws these animals go into a frenzy once released, leaving only our soldiers alone as they tear apart any other living thing nearby.

[VoidSlayer]

Alright, I'll support that dropship.

Want to make any changes?  That is just a first draft.

[Taricus]

Nothing I can see really, it's pretty much good as-is.

Vote for Combat Dropship

Looking for a good name for it.

[~Neri]

I vote for it as well.

[Hawk132]

+1 to Combat Dropship.

[10ebbor10]

Combat Dropship: An upgraded version of the standard dropship. Four Fusion Scramjets have been added, each in it's own external pod attached flush to the outer armor. Said armor has been greatly improved, being changed from the standard heat shielding to a multi layered armoring system with ceramic, metallic and biological components. Per directions, two weapon mounts were also installed, one on either side of the craft. The Scramjets allow the drop ship powered flight at speeds anywhere from mach 1 to Mach 3, and escape to orbit if needed, though the rocket on it's own is still powerful enough to boost the craft in a suborbital trajectory even if the somewhat vulnerable engines are destroyed. Batch size: 2

Spoiler: Note (click to show/hide)

Rest assured that I will not give you a 1 hit kill weapon. Does not mean you can't attempt it. You don't have to keep away from certain designs because you fear they'll be too effective, but don't be suprised, if, for example, attempting to terraform a planet attracts attention from it's inhabitants.
