Seismic Tank

A seismic tank, also referred to as "seismic charge minelayer" or "seismic hover tank," was a repulsorcraft that traveled very close to the surface of a planet and inflicted damage to an opposing force by ejecting a large piston downward onto the enemy, smashing them, and then creating a shockwave that rippled away from its impact zone. It was originally designed by Haor Chall Engineering for the Commerce Guild as a mining vehicle used to tear up the surface of a planet to reveal precious minerals. However, with the outbreak of the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the tank was put to military use on battlefields such as Dantooine and Ukio.
