History

The All-Terrain Scout Transport was a type of walker developed by the Galactic Empire for its military.

A number were deployed on the sanctuary moon of Endor that were part of the Emperor's finest legion and were intended to be used to ambush the Rebels during their attack on the shield generator. They arrived at the scene when the Rebels were also present in order to ensure their quick surrender. However, the Imperial military were ambushed by the native Ewoks who used a variety of primitive traps and tricks to destroy several walkers. Despite these losses, the Empire managed to use their walkers to secure an advantage over their enemies until the Wookiee Chewbacca along with several Ewoks commandeered an AT-ST after which they turned its weapons against the others. This secured a Rebel victory allowing them to destroy the shield generator allowing their fleet in orbit to launch an attack on the Death Star II's core.

Klatoonian raiders were noted to had recovered an AT-ST walker that they utilised in their attacks on Sorgan.
