The TX-130 Saber-class fighting tank, or simply the TX-130 Fighter Tank or TX-130, is an upcoming ground Armor Reinforcement vehicle for the Galactic Republic in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II. It will be released on June 26 as part of the Where are those Droidekas? Update.

Overview

The armored TX-130 tank balances agility with power; it is both quick and defensive, allowing it to strike at enemies with its laser cannons and then fall back. Although the laser cannons can only shoot in a straight horizontal line of fire, the TX-130 is maneuverable, allowing it to swing around to shoot at enemy players around it.

Abilities

• Laser Barrage: The Laser Barrage ability on the TX-130 fires a short laser cannon barrage of continuous blaster fire. During this time the TX-130 will fire automatically for a short period of time.
• Rockets: Rockets fire in an alternate fashion from pods on each side of the TX-130. The rockets are “dumb fired,” meaning they do not lock-on to enemies and fire in the direction you aim them, like the ATT’s. When firing rockets you have the ability to fire them one at a time, or you can charge them up. When charged (by holding the fire button) the TX-130 will unleash all of the rockets in quick momentum.
• Charge Mode: Activating this ability will toggle the primary fire into Charge Mode. While in Charge mode the TX-130 will gain the ability to charge up a massive charged bolt that fires simultaneously from both the left and right turrets, at the expense of some maneuverability. Charge Mode is the perfect ability to use when facing a slow moving target.

Trivia

• Apart from the AT-TE, which is a walker that can only be played on Geonosis: Trippa Hive in Galactic Assault, the TX-130 is the first tank for the Galactic Republic.
