Star Wars: The Rebellion Snowspeeder from The Empire Strikes Back The new Star Wars plastic model kits for gluing and painting now offer model fans aged 10 and over even more crafting fun. The modified T-47 Airspeeder, manufactured by Incom Corporation, reaches a speed of a good 1100 kilometers per hour by means of afterburners, but is not suitable for space flight. As one of the most common types of spacecraft in the Star Wars galaxy, the T-47 can be found in almost every industrialized world. The T-47, revised by the rebels, is called the Snowspeeder and is used in the battle on the ice planet Hoth to keep the advancing AT-AT at bay. The modifications also included technical modifications to cope with the immediate freezing of the propulsion systems. Thanks to the high speeds, the snowspeeders are difficult to hit. The resistant ropes, which were originally intended for the transport of heavy loads and against which AT-ATs were effectively used, are fired using harpoons. The pilot, who shares the cockpit back to back with the gunner, can take over complete weapon control in addition to navigation as required. The Star Wars Snowspeeder model kit is best known from The Empire Strikes Back. In the snowspeeder, Luke Skywalker gets close to the AT-AT Walker.
