Catapult (Wookiee)

Catapults were tracked artillery vehicles used by the Wookiees on the planet Kashyyyk. Heavy Catapults were their upgraded versions. Two Catapults under the command of the Wookiee Attichitcuk joined with a Rebel Alliance strike force to recover a Jedi artifact, the Vor'Na'Tu, soon after the Battle of Yavin in 0 ABY. The vehicles also saw action during the Liberation of Kashyyyk in 4 ABY. They were constructed at factories at a cost of fifty units of carbon and ninety units of nova crystals. The Catapults were armed with one energy cannon and the Heavy Catapults with two.
