AS-AT: Full Wingspan 3/4

The Air to Surface Armored Transport, or AS-AT, was developed after the AT-AT...Imperial commanders consistently praised the AT-AT for its ability to inspire terror in battlefield enemies, appearing unstoppable as it plodded forward, but found it lacking in its limited maneuverability and difficulty in deployment.

 

The AS-AT was the Imperial Navy's response. Reduced in size but still maintaining a predatory, animalistic frame, the AS-AT could be brought in quickly to any battle for needing a bit "shock and awe". Just as easily, it could deploy a squad of jump troopers to tip the scales of a battle in difficult terrain. The AS-AT could then retract its wings and support the immediate needs of troops on the ground, or return to the skies to provide air cover.
