ARGO Heavy Transport Shuttle
The Heavy Assault Transport (HAT) was a heavily armored Imperial shuttle designed for the rapid deployment of ground forces, capable of carrying up to six AT-ST walkers along with supporting troop squads directly into combat zones. Its design took inspiration from old space barges, combined with early AT-AT concepts, resulting in a rugged, boxy frame reinforced for heavy payloads. Additionally, Rothana Heavy Engineering incorporated extensive insights from field reports on its older LAAT dropships, refining the HAT’s ability to withstand battlefield conditions while ensuring efficient deployment of troops and vehicles. However, due to the relative scarcity of full-scale ground battles during the Empire’s reign, these shuttles were rarely deployed in large numbers. As a result, RHE eventually ceased production, leaving a sizeable surplus of HATs stored in massive complexes, largely forgotten as the Empire focused on naval dominance.

I like the design of this one much more than the patrol ship, but I think it could have been better in a larger scale where you wouldn't get as many gaps and somewhat basic parts. The shaping is a great example of unique design within a very apparent aesthetic
