Imperial Communication Relay Station & Patrol Skiff.
(A modified Consortium cold weather patrol skiff does a close pass of tower Gamma on they're daily patrol).
Relay stations like this one here on the ice world of Hoth help receive and transmit imperial communications to increase imperial network range across occupied planets.
Because these stations are often built in strategic locations to ensure full planetary coverage, this can mean they are left vulnerable and secluded, requiring they’re own protection. Patrol skiffs can commonly be seen transferring troopers too and from patrol shifts at these stations.
Inspired by Bjorn’s amazing skiff! I wanted to try and make a possible cold weather variant of his 🙂
