Summary

AT-ACT drivers were Galactic Empire army units who piloted All Terrain Armored Cargo Transports. They wore white Imperial tank pilot armor, with some drivers' breastplates featuring markings matching those found on Imperial combat assault tank commander armor, along with a white coastal defender stormtrooper helmet that was adorned with grey and red markings, including a red Imperial crest located on the pilot's helmet. The drivers were issued either E-11 or E-22 double barrel blaster rifles to carry as personal weapons. Despite their existence, specialized AT-ACT driver divisions were not used due to the fact that the AT-ACT was not considered a battlefield assault vehicle.During the Galactic Civil War between the Empire and the Rebel Alliance, AT-ACT drivers were stationed at the Imperial security complex on the planet Scarif. In 0 BBY, the Rebel squad "Rogue One" infiltrated the Imperial facility to steal the Death Star plans and kick-started the Battle of Scarif. During the battle, AT-ACT drivers used their walkers to engage the Rebel ground forces, initially proving effective and driving them back. However, the AT-ACTs were quickly destroyed when the Rebels received support from the Alliance Fleet, with Blue Squadron's T-65 X-wing starfighters and UT-60D U-wing starfighters making short work of the walkers. The security complex itself was later destroyed by the Death Star under orders from Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin. Read more... |
