Anti-aircraft flak pod

Anti-aircraft flak pods were a kind of homing explosive flak pod that were used by the Imperial Army of the Galactic Empire as ammunition for AT-AAs. Launching dozens of flak missiles in a scattered pattern to home in on enemy starships, they proved very effective against aerial vehicles such as the T-47 airspeeder, but were nearly useless against ground targets such as infantry, T2-B repulsor tanks, and other units.
