Set 75045, Republic AV-7 Anti-Vehicle Cannon, depicts a Republic anti-vehicle artillery piece from the Star Wars universe. Released in 2014, it belongs to the Star Wars theme and contains 434 pieces, with characters tied to the Clone Wars setting.
This model focuses on a Republic ground weapon rather than a starfighter or transport. Within the Star Wars theme, it fits the Clone Wars battlefield side of the range, pairing a defensive artillery subject with clone forces, a Jedi character, and a Separatist droid opponent.
The build centers on the cannon itself, providing a clear setting for Republic defense scenes or ground combat against droid forces.
It is suited to Star Wars collectors who want Republic equipment beyond ships and walkers, as well as builders arranging compact battle displays. On a shelf, it works as a Clone Wars artillery position, while in play it can serve as a fixed objective, a defended emplacement, or support for clone troopers.
