This X-Com produced unit is designed to contain Alien specimens, alive or dead. In order to retrieve Alien life forms, X-Com Agents must have Bio-Transport capability at a building after a tactical combat mission. From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia
Bio-Transport Module

Note: The module has a stated capacity of 20 'units' of alien lifeforms. This is incorrect. There is no upper limit!
This module allows recovery and transport of any alien lifeform, alive or dead. X-Com craft equipped with this module must land at any base which has an Alien Containment facility to off-load the biological entities. If no containment facility is present at the base, the option to "Keep On Board" is available where the craft can then transport the lifeforms to the correct base. This choice is only possible once per alien load.
Only one module is needed for each craft used in a recovery role since it has 'unlimited' capacity.
Image Error: The icon for this module is swapped to the cargo module within the Vehicle Equipment screen, and the in-game UFOpedia may also incorrectly display this 'grey module with cargo rollers' as a bio-transport module, depending on the game version used.
