Powerful engines and tensor field-supported legs kept the massive AT-ACTs moving forward, from mining sites to processing facilites, carrying cargo in situations where repulsorfields were unreliable or not suitable due to material incompatibilities.
Loads were carefully managed by stevedore droids who divided up partial holds of ultradense materials into manageable trips. The cargo module housed within the AT-ACT's frame encompassed nearly 550 cubic meters of space and was capable of carrying raw material. To give the knee joints extra strength when carrying cumbersome loads, an electromagnetic tensor field kept the overstressed motive assembly in smooth alignment. The walker's taller profile gave it a faster stride than an AT-AT, although at the expense of structural stability. Although the AT-ACT was not built for combat it was still capable of posing a formidable threat to infantry as discovered by Rebel troopers during the Battle of Scarif. The All Terrain Armored Cargo Transport was deployed at major Imperial construction projects, such as shipyards and sprawling research installations. An AT-ACT walker on a desert planet fires its heavy blaster cannons.
