Canderous-class assault tank

The Canderous-class assault tank was a heavy repulsor tank produced by MandalTech. It was named after famous Mandalore Canderous Ordo.

Characteristics
It sported heavy armor that rivaled that of an AT-AT walker. It was armed with two heavy mass-driver cannons and a concussion missile battery. It was also apparently armed with a form of mass-driver that was designed to penetrate enemy vehicles' shields. Despite its weight, it could move in places inaccessible to walkers.

History


Tanks of this kind were expensive and only the very rich could afford to have them in their arsenal. The crimelord Tyber Zann was known to have a number of Canderous-class tanks as part of his military forces.

Due to these tanks being heavily armored, they were more then capable of handling punishment, which was why they were equipped with a sensor control mechanism that tricked enemy vehicles into targeting the tank while the weaker forces would, temporarily, be free from harm.
