Hoth shield bunker

"We have located the enemy's shield generator facility, but were unable to approach. It is heavily guarded."

- Hemdil Tre

After the end of their conquest of the galaxy around 3639 BBY, the Eternal Empire of the planet Zakuul built a shield bunker on the western edge of the Southern Snowdrift Hills, a section of the Clabburn Tundra on the planet Hoth, to support the Star Fortress that they placed in geosynchronous orbit above the bunker. Commanded by ZK-294A, an elite Skytrooper, the bunker and its deflector shield generator was protected by powerful defensive emplacements, walkers, and Zakuulan military forces. Around 3635 BBY, the Outlander&mdash;leader of an Alliance against Zakuul&mdash;rallied the local resistance against the Eternal Empire and organized a bombardment of the bunker, allowing the Outlander and the Arcona Hemdil Tre to infiltrate and destroy the bunker and thus expose the Star Fortress.

Behind the scenes
The shield bunker on Hoth was first added to the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic in Knights of the Fallen Empire, a 2015 Digital Expansion.
