- "Tanks. Is that the best they can throw at us?"
- ―Rys, during the Ambush on Rugosa
Tanks were armored cavalry ground assault vehicles that were capable of extreme mobility thanks to their tracks, legs, wheels or a repulsorlift. Used by armies as part of armored cavalry units, they were designed for front-line combat as well as intimidation. They typically boasted large laser cannons mounted on turrets or other powerful anti-vehicle weaponry, and were heavily armored to protect the troops operating the weapons and the propulsion systems inside.[2]
The pirate Hondo Ohnaka, leader of the Ohnaka Gang, maintained a philosophy of both speaking softly and driving a large tank.[3] The Trade Federation,[4] InterGalactic Banking Clan,[5] Corporate Alliance,[6] Umbaran Militia,[7] Galactic Republic,[8] Confederacy of Independent Systems,[9] Galactic Empire,[10] and Alliance to Restore the Republic all manufactured or deployed tanks in some capacity.[11]
