Kinda crazy for a mobile wheeled command center. Can't imagine the material science needed to make a gear box that could drive that thing.

It almost certainly lacks a gearbox, one could probably be built with pre 1940s technology (like gearboxes in large ships to manage and combine 10s or even hundreds of thousands of SHP) but then you need drive shafts and differentials and heavy brakes and other mechanical parts. It would have a reactor for power and then electrical motors in each wheel, like the large LeTourneau wheeled vehicles in the 1950s did. Those where about 170m long, they used either diesel engines or gas turbines connected to generators which then powered the electrical motor in each wheel. Large 20m Earth movers also use this system, diesel electric trains do too. The Juggernaut would have this, it would probably have regenerative electromagnetic braking system for non friction, low wear brakes rather than disks and calipers or drums because stopping that much mass at those speeds would have insane levels of wear, possibly some friction brakes as parking brakes to hold it in place when stationary. Laser cannons and magical armour aside we could build one of these today, wouldn't be cheap or practical but we could, could even give it a nuclear reactor for no refueling for 30 years on top at the expense of, well expense.

I mean it's not that random. By the time of the empire it had been in service for awhile and some were probably not fit for front-line use if in combat at all. So, why not just scrap or dismount the weapons (and perhaps some of the armor) and make it into a glorified prison bus. If nothing else it's certainly intimidating which is the empire to a T. Besides some places in reality have used old, surplus, disarmed tanks as farming equipment. A tank. To plow fields.

The closest game I've seen with a large wheeled armored personnel carrier you can manually drive in first person is Star Citizen with the Anvil Spartan APC but even that is not close in size to the Juggernaut. The Spartan is only 16m versus 49m for the Juggernaut. The Spartan is still fun to bring friends along with the 8 jump seats plus a turret up top, though. You need a giant Crusader Hercules ship to carry it though. I wonder what they use to carry the Juggernaut in Star Wars?

6:09 The reason you see so many military ground vehicles with wheels or legs is because, canonically, active repulsorlifts are critically damaged by passing through ray shields. It's why the Trade Federation hovertanks in Episode I stop their advance and deploy droid troops to pass through the Gungans' shield, instead of just driving through. Because they couldn't without crippling their tanks. Wheeled and walker vehicles don't have this limitation.

i like that star wars acknowledges the absolute necessity of infantry suport for heavy tanks and vehicles, for while infantry greatly benefits from integrated armour support, (especially heavy) combat vehicles are extremely vulnerable on their own except for flat terrained, long ranged vehicle only engagements. many sci fi IPs throw that concept into the wind, despite still being essentially just combined arms warfare with fancier special effects.

I'm sorta surprised you didn't mention how wheels (and legs, really anything that had ground contact) would be needed when assaulting a shielded position. Being able to withstand incoming fire, drive 200kmph through a shield, lay down heavy suppressive fire, and disgorge 300 clone troopers sounds like an incredible thing to have during the clone wars against well funded and entrenched Separatist positions. By the same token, much less needed during the Empire when the rebels rarely had strong enough shields and even less entrenched positions they simply wouldn't just run away from. Great video! Thank you for making it.

I can only image the childlike excitement in the Kuat engineers when the GAR requested a heavily armed/armored bunker on wheels that could lead an assault.

I loved that scene in ep 3 where we got to see the juggernaut driving on the beach

The juggernaut is one of the best, if not the best tank in Star Wars. Or at least the best heavy tank. It works really well with the AT-TE as it helps the infantry and hits some harder targets with the mass driver gun, while the juggernaut can blast through tougher enemies and provide fire support.

I cannot believe that something like the A6 can move at 200kph, that is actually horrifying. Something that heavily armed and armoured moving that fast is absolutely frightening. I have no idea how it manages to reach such blisteringly high speeds doe something of its size, but the fact that it can makes it a force to be reckoned with.

The Juggernaught looks a lot like the German Sd.Kfz 234 or the more recent Luchs Reconnaissance vehicle. Even has a rear facing driving station.

What makes the juggernaut unique is that it's also the first (and as far as i know only) wheeled vehicle you see in the movies, series and cartoons

my interest in the Juggernaut came from that comic with Janek Sunber, where they go to investigate the disappearance of an imperial mining operation, only to get backed into a corner by the Amani tribes. i always loved how they "circled the wagons" with the converted AT-TE (might've been an AT-OT?) and the two Juggernauts.

One of my favorite clone wars era vehicles I wish we could have seem them been used more. Severely underrated in my opinion.

Hey Eck, I would love to see a video on the Republic Troop Transport (RTT) Also the juggernaut is absolutely menacing holy heck

The vehicle follows the rule of cool. And this is why it is terrifying for an enemy wearing sandals and a blaster. In real life it would be a huge target calling enemies and saying "hit me".

It was also a terror to a mechanic tasked with keeping it functioning according essential guide to vehicles. Also there is a cool set piece in the episode 3 game you obi wan fights order 66 clones on top a Juggernaught.

Yet another magnificent addition to the Star Wars universe courtesy of West End Games and the 80s Star Wars RPG. It's amazing how much of what is canon today originated with them.

Reminds me of the Char B1 and 2C tanks in WW2. Big and heavily armored for assaulting enemy fortifications and multiple weapons for different types of targets. They only thing they lacked is troop/cargo space. The juggernaut's size can be a weakness, but I doubt a droid tank can hit it's weak spots when on the move.

I love how there is a weird cold war between the various artists, animators and writing staff within star wars, as to which is the 'front' of the Juggernaut

Essentially, it's an MBT. It just has no treads. The same speeds forward as backwards and steering is one side stops spinning, and the other continues simple design ramped up for Star Wars.

Wouldn't mind some review of the Imperial era tanks! I know there's not a ton of them but they were fun. Do remember some of the weird hovertank variants the Empire had in the West End Game era.
The tri-fighter was a TERRIFYING bastard
