DESCRIPTION
The Zoronhed Utility Transport, locally known as the 'Ute,' is a heavy-duty multipurpose vehicle. Designed for the deserts and canyons of Zonju V, the Ute can haul passengers or cargo across rough and unstable terrain without much trouble. A few versions have caught on across the Outer Rim. With appropriate modifications, this vehicle is perfectly suited for running around on planets like Jakku, Tatooine, Hoth, Blenjeel, or Belsavis. Heavier tweaks can let it manage deep marsh like Dagobah or hard vacuum like the Polis Massa asteroids. It's nothing more or less than a rugged, versatile transport for a couple handfuls of people or a decent amount of bulk cargo. It's certainly not a combat vehicle, but its general durability and optional anticritter gun help it survive hazardous situations fairly well. Like walkers and other non-repulsorlift vehicles, the Ute isn't vulnerable to repulsor-disrupting weapons/traps.
