A specific Armored Assault Tank used by the Separatist forces, formally known as the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Armored fighting vehicles, referred to as tanks, represented a form of armored cavalry and were ground assault vehicles that exhibited exceptional maneuverability via tracks, legs, wheels or a repulsorlift system. These vehicles were employed by armies as integral components of armored cavalry formations and were engineered for both direct combat engagement on the front lines and to project an imposing presence. They generally featured sizable laser cannons mounted on rotating turrets, or other potent weaponry designed to neutralize enemy vehicles. Substantial armor plating was incorporated to provide protection for the troops operating the weapons systems, as well as the internal propulsion mechanisms.
Hondo Ohnaka, a pirate and the leader of the Ohnaka Gang, subscribed to a philosophy which involved a quiet demeanor coupled with the possession of a formidable tank. Various factions, including the Trade Federation, the InterGalactic Banking Clan, the Corporate Alliance, the Umbaran Militia, the Galactic Republic, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Galactic Empire, and the Alliance to Restore the Republic, either manufactured or deployed tanks in varying capacities.
