- The T-47 Airspeeder, also known as a Snowspeeder is a Rebel land-based aircraft that can be piloted in Star Wars Battlefront.
- The T-47 airspeeder, also known as the T-47 light airspeeder, was a model of low-altitude vehicle manufactured by Incom Corporation. When the Alliance to Restore the Republic was stationed on the icy planet of Hoth, a contingent of T-47 airspeeders were modified to become ground attack, low-altitude fighters called snowspeeders. Hoth's extreme cold temperatures were too severe for these craft; the power generators would lock up since they ran hot, requiring a large bank of heat radiator fins for essential cooling. Rebel technicians modified the T-47 airspeeder by insulating each radiator fin with side panels to decrease the heat exchange in order to better suit the new environment.
- The repulsorlift-powered T-47 Airspeeder, also known as the Snowspeeder for its effort during the Battle of Hoth, was never meant for armed combat, but the Alliance procured a squadron of them, equipped them with twin blasters, and adapted them for the ice-cold weather on Hoth. They even put their tow cables to use in combat, as seen when they tripped two AT-ATs. Though unarmored and less agile than the starfighters in the Alliance's arsenal, the speeder squadron managed to delay the Imperial advance so that the Alliance forces on the planet could evacuate.

| - The T-47 airspeeder, also known as the T-47 light airspeeder, was a model of low-altitude vehicle manufactured by Incom Corporation. When the Alliance to Restore the Republic was stationed on the icy planet of Hoth, a contingent of T-47 airspeeders were modified to become ground attack, low-altitude fighters called snowspeeders. Hoth's extreme cold temperatures were too severe for these craft; the power generators would lock up since they ran hot, requiring a large bank of heat radiator fins for essential cooling. Rebel technicians modified the T-47 airspeeder by insulating each radiator fin with side panels to decrease the heat exchange in order to better suit the new environment. A small, wedge-shaped vehicle, the Alliance snowspeeder was a two-person craft, with a pilot and a rear-facing tailgunner with a speed of 1,100 kph. It had two heavy, forward-facing laser cannons and a harpoon cannon placed ahead of the tailgunner. During the Battle of Hoth, these snowspeeders used tow cables to easily disable All Terrain Armored Transport walkers by firing the tow cable and chasing it out around the walker's legs, stopping its locomotion and immobilising the walker.

Though unarmored and less agile than the starfighters in the Alliance's arsenal, the speeder squadron managed to delay the Imperial advance so that the Alliance forces on the planet could evacuate. Currently, the T-47 can be found on the Ryloth map, where it takes on an air superiority role, engaging Imperial fighters and shuttles. It can't take much damage at all due to lack of armour and shields, but its agility and speed, coupled with its laser cannon replacing the harpoon, more than make up for this.
