DESCRIPTION
Built on the same modified TX-225A Occupier tank chassis as the Bantha Engineering Tank the Mad Bantha shares the same powerful engine and drive train giving it the ability to mount a cut down version of the Deadshot Artillery gun, the shorter barrel and smaller platform means that a smaller propellant charge is used, cutting down the strength of the gun, though it it still quite powerful when facing other armoured vehicles or infantry when using HE shells. Though the main weapon can be used to engage infantry with HE shells it is primarily meant to fight other armoured vehicles as part of a combined arms assault so protection from infantry was meant to be the job of other supporting infantry.
