Everyone forgets the T-47 Airspeeder (aka Snowspeeder)…

Did you not spend far too much time years ago playing Rogue Squadron games and using your harpoons and tow cables at AT-ATs to circle around to bring them down before finally getting the hang of it - and then achieving Gold Medal status…?
 

“The Snowspeeder, modified with armoured plating, stronger outboard laser canons and a harpoon tow cable for the rear gunnner is not a true flightcraft - but a repulsorcraft - so the flight ceiling is quite low. It hugs the ground well and is also quite maneuverable - but the addition of deflector shields was deemed costly and time-consuming - so watch yourself! The controls are quite similar to the X-Wing - so don’t worry about additional training.”

 
C’mon people, did Dak die for nothing? 😉
 

 

I would have used the recently necro-bumped X-Wing or Y-Wing, which ship would you prefer? - but that thread is really for X-Wing and Y-Wing ships (as its title suggests) - hence the bump for this thread…
