The assault battle droid or assault droid was a variation of the B1 battle droid used by the Trade Federation during the Clone Wars and The Separatist Crisis. Their assigned targets were enemy vehicles, as they were equipped with E-60R missile launcher, HX2 antipersonnel mines, and V-1 thermal detonators, as well as an SE-14 blaster pistol for taking out close-range, individual targets.^[1]

CharacteristicsEdit

During the Clone Wars, the heavy assault droids stood out from the standard battle droids, with their dark red or blue torso, with occasionally other red markings, like and not to be confused with OOM security battle droids.^[1]

HistoryEdit

Assault droids were produced by the CIS during the Clone Wars as anti-aircraft and anti-artillery units, used to destroy Republic turrets and vehicles on the battlefield. These heavy units were used to punch a hole in enemy armor, such as heavily grouped infantry, barricades, and most of all, vehicles.^[1]. They had mines to guard important positions. They were seen on many battles, such as Geonosis, Kashyyyk, and Munnilist.
