The TTAV-10, or the Terrestrial Transport and Assault Vehicle, is a multipurpose military ground transport and tank used by the Union Defense Forces of the Galactic Union. Supported by four rotor-treads, featuring eight laser cannon turrets along the body, and a heavy projectile mass-driver cannon on the front, the TTAV is the Army's main ground vehicle. Because its rotor-treads touch the ground, or alternatively when in hover-action only skims the ground, its top speeds are relatively low, but it enjoys greater stability. Not only is it able to climb sheer surfaces, it can also scale certain metal surfaces thanks to its ability to magnetize its treads.
The transport's crew consists of a pilot and a spotter seated in a forward compartment; four gunners/support crew, two each seated in the forward and rear hull sections; and a turret gunner who sat in the midsection of the walker to operate the mass-driver cannon. The spotter uses a rangefinder periscope to select targets and coordinate the fire of the gunners, who operated their weapons via targeting controls. The standard version of the TTAV-10 can seat two squads, or 32 troops, split between the forward and rear sections.
