- "Commander Cody, prepare the gunships for ground assault."
- ―Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, to Clone Commander Cody during the Battle of Teth
The Low Altitude Assault Transport, or LAAT, was a line of gunship used by the Grand Army of the Republic. Models in the line included the Low Altitude Assault Transport carrier designed to transport a single All Terrain Tactical Enforcer and the Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry that served mainly as a gunship and troop transport.[3] Space gunships[8] were a variant of the Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry designed to function in space.[21] The Coruscant Guard and Imperial Military also used a variant called the LAAT/le patrol gunship.[2]
When Acclamator-class transgalactic military assault ships were not able to land on the ground, the Republic Army depended on LAAT gunships for materiel and soldiers.[22]
