These were deployed from the tail ramp, with the rear laser turret providing covering fire during deployment. It could also carry up to four speeder bikes. The use of powerful inertial compensators helped troopers to remain standing during their journey.

Ī LAAT/i gunship could carry a full platoon of thirty clone troopers in its main hold.

Additional emergency equipment included medical packs and armor repair kits, collapsible repulsor stretches, inflatable decontamination tents, and a IM-6 Battlefield Medical Droid. In a crash, the LAAT could deploy fire retardant and both the cockpit canopy and side doors could be explosively blown off to allow escape. When faced with overwhelming enemy fire, the gunship could close its blast shields. It could also use its laser turrets to shoot down enemy missiles. īeneath a surface layer of superficial armor plating, the LAAT/i was equipped with an inner layer of powered, superdispersive armoring which would spread the impact of enemy fire across the entire hull. Lastly the gunship could carry eight light air-to-air rockets mounted beneath its wings. Each could vary the output on their laser shot to a maximum of five giga joules. Three anti-personnel laser cannon turrets-two mounted in the chin and one in the rear-were useful against infantry and other light ground targets. Two of these were mounted in the wings and remotely controlled, while the other two extended out from the craft and were manually controlled by two gunners. Each turret had a wide field of rotation, but the composite-beam design allowed for precision aiming beyond a turret's physical rotation. Four composite-beam laser turrets provided for defense against airborne threats. These were fed by rear-mounted missile belts which utilized special frictionless material to load the weapons. A pair of dorsal mass-driver missile launchers could fire a variety of ordance at up to hypersonic velocities and hit targets hiding over the horizon. The LAAT/i gunship was armed with a varied mix of complementary weaponry which could unleash considerable firepower. A variety of equipment was located in the nose of the craft, including the flight computer and sensors. The front of the gunship had two double cockpit bubbles where the pilot and co-pilot/gunner sat in single file and could be sealed off from the rest of the gunship. Besides serving as an infantry transport, the LAAT/i gunship was also used to provide air-to-ground and air-to-air support for Republic forces. The Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry gunship was a military repulsorcraft.
