Arakyd Industries Viper Probe Droid

 Arakyd Industries Viper Probe Droid 

The Viper probe droid, or "probot", is a deep-space exploration and planetary reconnaissance droid developed during the final years of the Galactic Republic. After the transformation into the Galactic Empire, the design was modified to make the droids more combat-capable for military purposes.

Imperial probe droids are lightly armored and equipped with a small blaster cannon for self-defense. High-resolution sensors and receivers take in motion, acoustic, electromagnetic, seismic, atmospheric, and radiation data, as well as a holocamera for recording images. It has 5 manipulator arms (one of which is high-torque with ST 20) and 3 sensor arms for gathering and analyzing samples, such as soil or biological matter. A floodlight on the head can illuminate dark areas when necessary (Range 200). Its repulsorlift generator can propel the droid over any terrain at a height up to 5 meters.

Information is relayed via a high-frequency Holonet transceiver through encrypted channels, giving the droid a distinctive sound as it transmits. The Empire typically deploys them via single-use hyperspace pods. In the event that the droid is at risk of being disabled and captured, it is set to trigger a self-destruct mechanism (Damage 6dx5 cr ex).

A brand new Viper probe droid costs 14,500 credits by default.
