[ Strengths ]

• Fast - Unlike it's older counterpart, the newer and more advanced version of the AT-ST is fast, much faster than it's previous version despite the increase in weight and heavier armor plating. Whereas the older model went as fast as forty-nine miles per hour, the modernized version goes a boasted eighty miles per hour due to the addition of a more powerful energy source with stronger metals for the legs, that are capable of handling fast speeds whilst also holding up the entirety of the hull or the 'head' of the AT-ST.

• Capable Offensive Armament - The old AT-ST of the once glorious Galactic Empire pre-battle-of-Yavin lacked a capable offensive armament. The newer model, however, makes up for this fault, boasting increased firepower in the forms of explosive weaponry, ranging from ion grenades and ion missiles to homing cluster missiles and cluster grenades. All of the new additional weapon systems can help the AT-ST to obliterate masses of infantry in ambushes and even possibly destroy larger, armored vehicles as well.

[ Weaknesses ]

• Back Hull Armor - Not all problems can be or have been solved with time. Not even the poorly armored back plating of the AT-ST, even in it's modernized version. The back of the hull of the AT-ST is the most susceptible to damage out of most of the armor on the walker. It is the weakest part despite its reinforcement with a few millimeters thick of Quadanium Steel to try and compensate for its lack of back armor. Heavy weapons will easily be able to break through the back hull armor, with time, of course. Rockets, however, can easily make short work of the vulnerable and oftentimes, weak back hull armor of the AT-ST, rendering it defenseless when turned around with it's back towards an enemy oppressor.

• 'Knee' Joints - Despite the knee joints being serrated as to prevent the past usage of two cables against such walker models, the knee joints themselves do not boast much in the way of overall durability or strength in regards to defensive capabilities. A well-placed rocket can easily destroy a knee joint, forcing the AT-ST onto one leg and thus, collapsing it onto the ground in a useless heap of metal and weapons.

[ Description ]

• The All-terrain or AT series of the old, pre-battle-of-Yavin Galactic Empire was a key-component of that once galaxy-wide organization. The AT series was the pinnacle of imperial engineering accomplishments within that time period, they become the key-figures of the Imperial Army, most notably, of course, the AT-At and the AT-ST. The All Terrain Scout Transport was somewhere where the new rebuilt Galactic Empire of Imperator Tanomas Graf wanted to first start in their revival of the AT-series of imperial war-machines. The AT-ST has become modernized and revolutionized by the new Galactic Empire, keeping to the old design while trying to improve on all of the faults and engineering problems that were present with the old model. From serrated knee joints to prevent the usage of tow cables, to a shield, to heavier armor, their have been many boastful improvments to the age-old, yet iconic model.
