In the directory your_freeciv_directory/data/default, there is a file
called units.ruleset. It contains the definition of units. You can change 
definition to have new kinds of transports. Also, in
you_freeciv_directory, you can read README.rulesets . Rulesets are cool. 
These files are loaded when a game is started. So, you don't need to 
recompile freeciv. You only need to have a modified default/units.ruleset
installed.

Bye,

Ps, paratroops already exists but are not allowed.
