The discord missile was a missile used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Description
Launched by Vulture droids and droid tri-fighters, each missile contained up to seven buzz droids, which it could release near starfighters. It could outmaneuver and outrun most starfighters and capital ship point-defenses.
History
Anakin Skywalker managed to "outsmart" two of these missiles during the Battle of Coruscant while on a mission to rescue the Supreme Chancellor. The missile had a powerful rocket engine and an array of maneuvering fins, allowing them to accelerate at over 10,000G. It is identified by its blue trail, leading to the nickname "Blue Streak". Obi-Wan Kenobi's fighter was attacked by buzz droids after two of these missiles released the droids during the battle over Coruscant.
