| Republic Gunship - Author's Collection |
The Hot Wheels Republic Gunship shown above is labelled "12." On the back, it depicts Jango Fett's starship (which used to be called "Slave 1"), a snow speeder, and a Star Destroyer. If these constitute a complete set, then I still need to obtain a snow speeder.
"The Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry (LAAT/i), also referred to as the Republic Gunship, Republic attack gunship, Assault Gunship or LAATi,[2] and nicknamed a larty,[15] was one of the several models in the Low Altitude Assault Transport line of starships that mainly served as gunships and troop transports for the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. Its role was to transport clone troopers as well as offering air-to-ground and air-to-air support for the Galactic Republic against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The LAAT/i gunship saw extensive use in numerous battles and campaigns of the Clone Wars. During the Imperial Era, the ships continued to see use by various factions, including both the Galactic Empire and Alliance to Restore the Republic."
