plasmahal Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Background:The T-47 air-speeder was a model of low-altitude vehicle manufactured by Incom Corporation. When the Alliance to Restore the Republic was stationed on the icy planet of Hoth, a contingent of T-47 airspeeders were modified to become ground attack, low-altitude fighters called snowspeeders. A small, wedge-shaped craft, the Alliance snowspeeder was a two-man ship, with a pilot and a rear-facing tailgunner. It had two heavy, forward-facing laser cannons and a harpoon cannon fitted in its rear arc. During the Battle of Hoth, these snowspeeders used tow cables to easily take out All Terrain Armoured Transport walkers, by shooting the tow cable, and wrapping it out around the walker's legs, immobilising and destroying the walker.

The Chief Smeg Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 That is really nice. This is definitely going on my list of future purchases, the only problem is that list is getting VERY long.
