Doors of the LAAT/i

Post by Lord Revan »

Well I noticed that side doors of LAAT/i Gunship don't extend far enough to cover the hole side (before the door) of craft

is there any official explanation for this?

Mind providing evidence?

EDIT: Oh, wait, nevermind, I see what you mean.

Perhaps so that the interior of the craft isn't completely enclosed in case of emergencies, so there's still an exit provided.

I'm not at home, so I can't check, but like Hueys, it seems they keep those "doors" open as a matter of course anyway. Do they not extend all the way to the front? If not, it may be to allow the ball composite-beam turrets to swing out?

they don't extend all the way. What I think is that part of door can retracted inside so extent the ball turrets still keep maximium protection in advent of shield failure.
