Low Altitude Assault Transport/carrier

The Low Altitude Assault Transport/carrier (LAAT/c), also known as the LAAT/c assault carrier, AT-TE Carrier Tank Lifter, or the Republic Dropship was one of the two models in the Low Altitude Assault Transport line of gunship designed to transport a single All Terrain Tactical Enforcer. The ship locked onto an AT-TE with its magnetic claps and brought the walker to the designated drop zone. They were used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars, and by the Galactic Empire as well. They could also carry K79-S80 Imperial Troop Transports and RTT-04 armored troop transports.

The Low Altitude Assault Transport carrier produced by Rothana Heavy Engineering was a heavy airlift variant of the Grand Army of the Republic's Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry gunship. Initially designed as a carrier for the All Terrain Tactical Enforcer, the LAAT/c was a fast, lightly armed vehicle used to transport walkers and other heavy vehicles, such as RX-200 Falchion-class assault tanks, to the battlefield for fast deployment. These large, 175,000-credit airspeeders allowed Galactic Republic Army commanders to move and deploy their armored forces quickly and efficiently.
