I'm not so sure that is landing gear, but it would make a lot of sense to have some sort of installation for a futuristic army to rapidly deploy foward operating bases, or even watch towers.
Perhaps it really is landing gear but is just to make it look more convincing for the art side of things. I guess we'll have to see. Looks good! |

Oh, it's landing gear...
Think how a faction would hold the territory without some type of fortress? Hide behind trees or scrabble in the rocks? No, you establish a COP, just like the military does in Afghanistan. That is what this is, a COP flown in for defensive purposes and possibly resource mining.

Sorry but when you said landing gear it made me think that maybe the thing had it own flight system. |

If you look at the game they seem to be partially inspiring on - EVE - it makes sense.
People fight over systems in eve, often spend a lot of time/money to defend them. So I'd assume, maybe not straight away, but that's the plan for PS2. Outfits essentially equipping 'thier' sectors with towers like this one and more. It enhances the sense of 'belonging' -> keeps people engaged. After all, what are you going to care more for, a random facility being hacked or your outfits tower you've spent a week farming materials for, being blown up?  This should make fights more dramatic, instead of calling a mass recall and hopping over to another cont. On a side note - I remember back in PS1, shortly after release, it was mentioned outfits will be able to own facilities and upgrade them with better turrets etc.
