AT-ST drop pod

The AT-ST drop pod was a type of drop ship used by the Galactic Empire.

Characteristics
These pods appeared as large cylinders that were deployed from great heights and landed at certain locations. Once they crashed into the ground, bolts on the sides of the cylinder exploded open and revealed the contents of the pod which was an AT-ST walker which allowed for quick as well as easy deployment of these vehicles onto the battlefield.

History
Whilst on Felucia searching for the captured Senator Bail Organa, Galen Marek fought through a number of Stormtroopers as he moved deeper into the fungal jungles of the world. On his way, a drop pod descended which caused a landslide trapping Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice and forcing him to fight an AT-ST walker that the pod deployed.
