The HAVt B5 Juggernaut served as an armored combat vehicle employed by the Galactic Empire throughout the duration of the Galactic Civil War.
Even though it possessed some armor and weaponry, the B5 variant was regarded more as a transport vehicle rather than an offensive vehicle like its predecessors. Notably, they implemented a special laser defense mechanism intended to intercept incoming enemy missiles before they could impact allied formations, rendering them a highly beneficial support asset within Imperial armored formations.
In contrast to earlier iterations, where the rear section accommodated a supplementary control station, the B5 Juggernaut's rear section could be opened to facilitate the embarkation and disembarkation of infantry and compact vehicles.
The Empire deployed the B5 in numerous engagements as a means of conveying troops across battle zones. A hijacked B5 was commandeered by Tyber Zann of the Zann Consortium to steal a Sith holocron from the Imperial Archive belonging to Palpatine.
