Description
Description
The VAAT-h is a modernized and slightly upsided version of the tried and tested LAAT Gunship of the Clone Wars. Chief among the modifications added by Stiel Industries is the addition of a hyperdrive, although this was at a cost in transport capacity. The second most notable improvement of the craft was the modualization of it's weapon systems, allowing a greater degree of customization. The most common weapons of choice are the trusted blaster cannons and repeating heavy blasters, although a myriad of other weapons exist, ranging from rocket pods to anti-missile defensive lasers to even high pressure flamethrowers. Even the fearsome rocket launchers have been modernized, and can be swapped between proton torpedo or concussion missile launchers, heavy blaster cannons, or even simply removed for added maneuverability and reduced cost.
