Track Guards also referred to as Armoured tracks, are designed to protect vulnerable parts of vehicle track mechanisms and are typically used by the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard will sometimes issue track guards to both its transports and its main battle tanks in an effort to limit the danger posed by an immobilised vehicle. Similar to ablative armour, track guards can be the difference between life and death on the battlefield. They usually come in the form of thick plates of armour placed over the tracks. Damaged track guards are difficult to be repair and are often replaced instead.[1][2][3][4][5]
