Given the fact that the Space-Marines main role is as rapid deployment
troops, and the fact that the Chapter very well may be supporting
several fronts, I'd say that enough T-hawks to move two companies (plus
staff, thus ten T-hawks) ought to be the minimum. This way they can
either make two separate, company-sized (and a Marine comapny is a quite
potent force) drops or concentrate their forces for one, rather big,
drop.

True. A Marine Chapter is about as big as a small brigade.
