At this point I’m just a Star Wars vehicle fan.

[@MoonWeasel23]

I love that this thing is one of the only wheeled vehicles in mainstream Star Wars. It’s like someone in universe just went “wait, what were those things we invented like 50,000 years ago? Oh yeah, WHEELS” and proceeded to put ten of them on a building and called it a day.

[@justicebinder6544]

This and the AT-TE were my favorites and a kid. Still are

[@SPECTRA_87]

All terrain tactical enforcer, such a bad ass name for an equally bad ass vehicles

[@andrewmalinowski6673]

Leaned more towards the AT-TE after seing it in "Clone Wars" but the size and power of the Juggernaut definitely made an impression when it was introduced in "Revenge of the Sith." It definitely stands out when most craft are either; repulsorlift, speeders, or walkers but the small size and durability of the Tactical Enforcer makes it seem like a valuable escort for the Juggernauts

[@NovexusNui777]

Two goated vehicles

[@casbot71]

A retrofitted old Juggernaut would make a great exploration vehicle on a unknown planet. Turn the troop capacity into long term living quarters and science labs, and just cruise around the planet for a couple of months stopping to take regular samples. Drop it off in some out of the way place and then either pick it up in a few months or have it make its way to the designated landing/colony site. Just keep some of the weapons in case of giant dangerous lifeforms attacking. The scientific tools can be used afterwards to try and work out how the ecosystem could support such a giant predatory creature without any equally sized prey.... There's always some brontosaurus sized tiger on every planet (except Earth).

[@m1tthrawnuru0d06]

So similar to what Rex and his friends did after leaving the Empire. They were living in an AT-TE but the Juggernaut seems more comfortable to me.

[@violetlight1548]

This is an AWESOME idea! Mind if I borrow it for my Explorers? (basically Starfleet in the SW universe)

[@andrewmalinowski6673]

​@@violetlight1548If a version was constructed in either Star Trek or Stargate it would make sense, but the armored hull would definitely make sense for dangerous planetary exploration

[@arandomcommenter0135]

8:05 "A9 in the scene where Jyn Erso was being transported gave us the A9 Juggernaut" *visible confusion*

[@casbot71]

A terrifyingly *OP variant* that never existed is an A6 frame optimised to carry _the biggest turret_ that can be fitted on the main section. That could fit some capital ship grade weaponry and one-shot enemy vehicles (and ships, with good enough targeting) at long range and possibly close range. Remove whatever troop and vehicle storage capacity is required to fit the turret rotation and support mechanisms, and if necessary the extra power generation. The observation post can be removed, able to retract into the vehicle so as to not block that firing angle, or be mounted on top of the turret itself. That would be useful for taking full advantage of the increased range such a weapon would be capable of and outranging CIS vehicles. With the turret being so big, it should be able to depress enough to hit closer targets (particularly to the sides) as it sits high enough to have the main gun mounted far enough to point below horizontal without hitting the hull. An even more extreme version would be to not use a turret and instead mount a fixed giant gun, like a SPHA on wheels instead of many legs. But the wheeled giant tank is the more flexible and effective concept. And with a variable power setting on its main gun it could dial it down to deal more rapid shots to only use the power needed on lighter targets and then use full power for fortifications and the enemy's heaviest armour. It would _obliterate_ enemy heavy vehicle before they had a chance to hit back.

[@jacobanderson8219]

You just essentially described a DS2 version of the SPHA-T cannons (mainly the ability to fire on a lower charge), or a smaller variant of the planetary turbolasers from Legends. Makes me think of the Cold War Swedish Strv 103. A cool concept, but I can't see Disney having the foresight or knowledge to develop it further.

[@corrinestenman5683]

I'd expect that either the A4 or (more likely) the A5 was introduced in the aftermath of the invasion of Naboo; hell, I'd expect that every sector and system defense force started upgrading their arsenals at that time, and that various corporations were rushing to bring new models of everything from blaster pistols to warships to the galaxy, and that a lot of the "classic" pre-war and Clone Wars designs got either their start or a newly revamped model in the years following.

[@Director_Orson_Krennic]

I'd guess the A4 was the newest version of a line of Juggernauts that had been made for PDF ground forces since roughly the Rusaan Reformation, the fourth iteration of the line. Probably something like 200-300 years of production and use at that point, just kinda vibing as there was really only skirmishes with criminal groups and other assorted riff-raff, no need to really step it up. The Battle of Naboo changed that, and spurred a new development. I could see both the A5 and A6 being developed at the same time by competing design teams for the A5's design contest held by the main manufacturer, but the A5 being more reasonably sized and practical won out. The A6's design was stored away for a rainy day or further design inspiration for the future at that point - until the Clone Wars kicked off. I could see the company then remembering they had that, dusting the design off, offering it to the Republic and spooling production up, because open warfare required every new strong design around to be ready to go - and all the design work was already done in this in advance, meaning it was set to just go straight into mass production

[@StuartistStudio1964]

I've loved the Juggernauts 3:46 , ever since I first saw them in the West End Games d6 RPG.

[@Vidiocity92]

It can turn better than a persuader tank droid, it's unstoppable!

[@NeptuniaMorgan]

As much as I love the Juggernaut, I really like George’s decision to pick the AT-AT for the battle of Hoth

[@violetlight1548]

Timothy Zahn has the Empire of the Hand use Juggernauts in his short story "Crisis of Faith" (the *only* time we get to directly see Thrawn command the Hand's forces in a battle -- totally worth a read!). He doesn't say which model, but I'm assuming it was the A5 RotS one. It's an excellent short story, and a must for any Thrawn fans!

[@josephcramer1612]

Do you ever think about doing a "vehicle versus"? Like your Starship versus for just ground vehicles and such? I think it would be cool. That or a tier list. Great video!

[@Admiral_Grufus]

Gotta love the 42069 different juggernaut variants 😂😂

[@wargeneralbonez]

I really love The Turbo Tank because not only is it bad@$$ and awesome, but it's also really powerful and useful. But my problem is that Star Wars not only didn't give it screen time but it's also not utilized right on screen. SO WHY EVEN ADD THIS VEHICLE WHEN THEY'RE NOT EVEN GONNA USE IT RIGHT ON SCREEN!!!???

[@tianoc-g4811]

It's nice to discuss a detailed talk about my brother's favorite vehicle in Star Wars. Just like the Y-Wing, the juggernaut clone turbotank was given an extended service through both the clone wars and the galactic civil war.

[@Lilx10do]

Wish we would’ve gotten some sick close up scenes of this beast in battle running over a droid army. Screw the ATTE vs ATAT in rebels, I’m tryna see the ATAT vs A6 driven by Dom Torreto and CGI Paul walker in fast & furious 12 - Tokyo takeover

[@stormlordeternal7663]

I love these things. I genuinely have a hard time saying if either them of the AT-TE is my favorite ground vehicle in Star Wars. The Juggernaut is everything the AT-AT wished it was. Like, aside from the impressive size, durability and firepower, the fact that these things were FAST is just ridiculous in all the best ways. OP bs you love to see. Makes you wonder how op a wheeled AT-TE could be.

[@alejandrobraganza8728]

I'm aware that there isn't as much info about them, but I would really love to know more about Rebel/New Republic/Galactic Alliance tanks and land vehicules. Is such a shame that they didn't receive much attention neither in Canon nor Legends.

[@gabt-1756]

You know, the rebels had a juggernaut of their own. It was the counterpart of the AT AT in the now unaccesible mobile game Star Wars Commander, a canon game btw. I like the fact that commander showed a considerable amount of rebel ground vehicles and obscure starships and vehicles in general, given the fact that it was a Clash of Clans-like game...

[@broomball_dude]

We know of pod racing & many other sports & games in the starwars universe how many of those could you possibly make video ideas with; even if some similar sports like most kinds of racing are lumped in one? Just from racing i can think of 3 examples: -pod racing from phantom menace - fighter racing like is shown in starwars resistance - creature racing that would have happened where they released the stabled creatures in the last jedi Also maybe compare the droid battles from solo & any other cannon sources to modern battlebot rumbles we have currently There are likely other sources of sports in that universe you could breakdown too if any of these suggestions catch your interest.

[@readingking1421]

I'll never stop being disappointed that these don't have a bigger lore presence

[@domshooter934]

i swear to god i remember a repulsor juggernaut being mentioned during the attack on lukes academy on yavin

[@RenManiel]

That might be the A9 (legends) which is a floating gigabrick/repulsor juggernaut.

[@clonekiller6643]

9:00 B5 variant i think was introduced in base game empire at war. It was basically the same as the a5 just equipped with less weapons and more troop space

[@bielinskibartosz7099]

[@clonekiller6643]

[@jacobbundy5256]

I wish the A6 would make a comeback and be reactivated as a frontline vehicle. I can’t imagine anyone let alone an animator looking at that thing and thinking “yeah let’s put that on the back burner and make more walking things”

[@cristianortiz3641]

[@TeraQuad]

Lets get "EC-Henry" on the Design of the First Order or New Republic A6/9 Juggernaut MK2.

[@StoneCresent]

The Juggernauts and Turbo Tanks strike me more as long range patrol vehicles for remote areas or mobile command posts than frontline assault units. Their size also restricts them to wide and flat areas or roadways wide enough and robust enough to accommodate them.

[@DanBen07]

It is interesting hearing Eckhart say a wheeled vehicle only has a few advantages over the legged vehicles, when in real life wheeled vehicles have massive advantages over legged vehicles. But that's star wars lore, they make impractical things in real life work in their universe.

[@MoonWeasel23]

Not sure if you’ll see this or really care at all, but the recommended videos I get from your videos are kind of interesting. Obviously I get your other videos and related SW material in the feed, but I also get what I would consider right leaning or conservative leaning videos. I clear my history and caches pretty regularly, so I don’t think it’s because of what all I’m watching, but it’s just interesting to me since it didn’t seem like that was the associated content with your videos back a few years ago. Maybe you care, maybe you don’t, but again, just something interesting I’ve noticed, and perhaps something which affects your audience type and numbers on KZbin. Good lore video as always.

[@JohanSkotkonung]

[@Eagle-mn9mo]

#AskEck Which of these fighters is the most worthy successor to the V-Wing: the A-Wing or the TIE fighter? The A-Wing would win in single combat I'm sure, but which of them would be more successful doctrinally? Really the reason I'm asking is because they both draw certain characteristics from the V-Wing, and maximize said characteristic.

Always thought the A5 was way more sensible than the A6. The A6, while poweful, is just too big to be effective. It cannot menuver very well through dense or even moderately urban terrain. It's way too big to transport effectively. That weight poses serious concerns on litterally any terrain. And perhaps most glaring, for how many resources are tied up in the A6, it is just too big a target. A few Hyenas could destroy this thing despite that AA defense, that's a lot of clones/material to lose in one sitting. The A5 is still big, but is a lot more sensible in size. Still packs a punch too. The Empire was right to keep it in service. Actually a lot imperial and Nee Republic ground vehicles seem to be sensibly designed when compared to CIS or Republic vehicles. But either way, juggernauts in genral were just too maintenence heavy to be effective. They were constantly breaking down and I imagine that's why walkers and repulsercraft were so prevalent.
