Droid Starfighter Retracted walk mode claws j he space fighters deployed from the Trade Federation A battleships are themselves droids, not piloted by any living a, being. Showered upon enemies in tremendous swarms, droid Starfighters dart through space in maddening ___ fury, elusive targets and deadly opponents for living defenders. They are controlled by a continuously modulated signal from the central Droid Control Ship computer, which keeps track of every single individual fighter just as it pulses through the processor of every single battle droid.

They are the . „ , , _ , , „ Attack and Flight Modes most sophisticated automated Starfighters ever built, carrying four laser To both protect and conceal its deadly cannons as well as two energy torpedo launchers, which pack them with laser cannons, the droid Starfighter retracts its wings in flight mode (above). In this configuration, the droid can hide its military nature, enabling it to ambush the unwary. Covering the weapons when not in use, shielding them from microparticles and atmospheric corrosion, can also improve their accuracy by a tiny degree, an effort at high precision typical of the Haor Chall engineer initiates. firepower far beyond their size class.

Connected to a high-voltage power grid, the droid Starfighters quietly hum as they are charged to maximum capacity by the reactors of the host J battleship. Individual fighters periodically test their systems as they hang, flexing \ their wings and turning their heads, lk presenting the uncanny impression vlk of a colony of flying cave VÄ, creatures lying in wait for attack. The flying, walking, shape-shifting droid starfighter requires extremely specialized manufacturing, of the kind found in the traditional cathedral factories of Xi Char, where ultra-precision manufacturing is a religious practice followed by thousands. The initiates do not concern themselves with the ultimate use of their deadly creations, making Xi Charrians ideal pawns of the Trade Federation’s dark purposes.

Droid Starfighters can thus serve as guards to territory they have blasted into submission. In walk patrol mode they can launch into the air to pursue fleeing ships as easily as they can gun down resisting populations of “future customers.” Unsettling, ungainly, and towering, they carry terror as well as firepower. A droid starfighter in walk patrol mode presents an eerie spectacle: a mindless killing machine directed by a far-off intelligence. Extended scissor action „ walk mode claw
