Self Propelled Heavy Artillery

The SPHA (Self Propelled Heavy Artillery) was a twelve legged heavy support vehicle used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. The SPHA could be outfitted with several modular weapons including a concussion missile launcher, Ion Cannon or a Heavy Turbolaser, the latter of which could be used to bring down spacecraft in the size range of Trade Federation core ships.

It should be noted that -- despite the name -- the SPHA is not actually an artillery piece, as it can not drop ordnance on targets that are not in its line of sight.
