Ground Armored Tank

The Ground Armored Tank (GAT) was a light tank used in the early stages of the Clone Wars by the Confederacy of Independent Systems. It was rivaled by the Republic TX-130 Saber-class fighter tank.
==Description==
The vehicle's armament consisted of two medium laser cannons and two missile launchers. It was built by Baktoid Armor Workshop and, like many Separatist vehicles, the GAT was piloted by an integrated droid brain. While it was capable of performing a variety of tasks, the GAT excelled as a reconnaissance and fast-attack craft, due to its light armor.
==History==
The GAT received heavy use early on in the Clone Wars, especially in the Dark Reaper crisis, serving alongside the larger Armored Assault Tank. It had light armor, and its high speed made it excellent for hit and run attacks. It was often used in conjunction with the Single Trooper Aerial Platform. They were deployed during the Battle of Tirahnn.Galaxy at War
Following the execution of the Separatist Council by Darth Sidious's new apprentice, Darth Vader, these units were de-activated.
