With increased on-the-ground military presence of the New Imperial Order in its border worlds and the increase of anti-insurgency operations within difficult to tame planets demanding a boots on the ground approach to deterring the threats of now several Sith terrorist groups and now Republic aligned militant groups with the coming of the Frigid Dawn, the Cold War between the New Imperial Order and the Galactic Alliance, the NIO commissioned another troop transport to slot into use with their Army, Stormtrooper and COMPFORCE detachments to act as mobile enforcers able to dispatch detachments of Imperial ground troops to areas of need within its jurisdiction.
While the high defense demands of earlier troop transports remained in place so too came the demands for an increased speed and an increased armament as while earlier models of APCs were effective at carrying troops to and from the battlefield, they weren't able to adequately defend themselves on the field of battle without coordinated armor or infantry support. What came was the MT-BTR, making a more robust shielding system, increased composite armor and added a full rotating turret to the top of the hull able to target infantry, light vehicles and target air targets, meaning the MT-BTR was able to defend itself to great effectiveness while unsupported with multiple grenade launcher mounts to deter encroaching infantry and two front mounted E-web repeating blasters which are able to cut through waves of infantry with relative ease in spite of the demands on the power supply.
