PLX-4 missile launcher
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The PLX-4 Missile Launcher was the latest in a line of launchers designed by Merr-Sonn, starting with the PLX-1.
It was very effective for infantry troops due to its versatility. It was capable of firing both missiles and standard rockets, as well as more advanced projectiles such as "smart" rockets and "savant" missiles. "Smart" rockets, technically called Gravity-Activated Mode or GAM, were guided missiles specially designed for the Plex. "Savant" missiles were designed to mimic standard unguided missiles until a set time when they would activate and home in on their target. In this manner, victims often thought they had avoided the missile only for it to strike them from behind.
The PLX-4 could be shot “over-the-shoulder” or on tripods (although these were supplied by other manufacturers).It came with a detachable missile rack capable of holding four rockets. The standard launcher cost 6,000 credits, while rockets ranged from 200 to 1,000 each.
