HistoryEdit

Staffed by an experienced crew, Blizzard 4's role in all engagements was to seek out new terrain uncovered by the initial offensive thrust and unload troops to hold it. In an attempt to impress Darth Vader, Starck's group went through the treacherous Kerane Valley. ^[1] Later in the battle, Luke Skywalker, his snowspeeder crippled and crashed, narrowly dodged the AT-AT's crushing foot, before grappling to its underbelly with a harpoon gun, cutting through the armor with his lightsaber, and using a thermal detonator to destroy it.^[2]

Behind the scenesEdit

Non-canon appearancesEdit

In a skit from Robot Chicken: Star Wars, Luke Skywalker, similar to the movie, managed to grapple the Blizzard 4's underbelly using a harpoon gun, cut through the armor with his lightsaber, and threw a thermal detonator into the hole. However, unlike the film, it was revealed that he threw the detonator within an occupied lavatory, with it exploding and downing the AT-AT.
