Turak IV

Turak IV was a seismically-active planet covered in lava plains where the Empire inflicted great damage on the Alliance after the Battle of Hoth, although at the cost of many Imperial-class repulsortanks. The planet may have been in Kwymar Sector.

This disaster befell the Imperials because General Maltaz allowed the tanks to be cut off from their supply lines by a Rebel ambush team, known as the Hitak Harriers, in the volcanic Hitak Mountains. Maltaz ordered the tanks to stand their ground, and all but three tanks were lost before TIE fighters arrived, bombarding the Rebel landing field, killing many Rebels and destroying much of their equipment.

After the loss of so many tanks on Turak IV, Ubrikkian Industries dramatically decreased their production of the Imperial-class.
