Ihe AT-ST is a relatively lightweight vehicle and a vital component of the Imperial ground forces due to its speed, manoeuvrability and precise weaponry. Each scout walkeris manned by a pilot and gunner, who enter the command pod via a small hatch on the topside of the armoured module.

The scout walker issued to protect and support the ground troops and guard the flank and vulnerable under belly of the AT-AT walkers. An AT-ST can also employ the sharp claws on each foot to slice through barricades and other obstacles.

Unfortunately the scout walker has several limitations, the vehicle's gyro balance system is highly susceptible to damage, and its thin legs have difficulty navigating steep terrain. Thus enemy troops have found methods of toppling the AT-ST by using hidden trenches and other traps aimed at the legs.
