PK-40 mass driver

The PK-40 mass driver was a heavy artillery weapon in service with the Republic Army during the Clone Wars, and the Imperial Army during the Galactic Civil War.
== Overview ==
Developed by the Marder Armaments Corporation in the wake of the Naboo Crisis, the PK-40 was a 75mm coilgun designed to penetrate the frontal armor of the Trade Federation's Spademite-class assault tanks. Though it remained in service as a towed anti-vehicle weapon well into to Galactic Civil War, the PK-40 was eventually superseded in the tank gun role by the 88mm PK-43.
