Armored Scout Tank

The Armored Scout Tank (AST) was a repulsorcraft vehicle used by the Trade Federation and later by the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Characteristics
The Armored Scout Tank was designed as a light reconnaissance variant of the Armored Assault Tank. It was piloted by a single OOM pilot battle droid, and was armed with a high-powered twin laser cannon.[1] Although the bottom of the vehicle appears to bear artillery tubes such as those found on the AST's larger counterpart, the Armored Assault Tank, they do not appear to be functional.
