An aquatic version of the MVR-3 speeder bike, the mini-sub, adapted by the Xi Char cathedral factories, saw action in underwater battles during the Clone Wars.[1]

Characteristics
Edit
The mini-sub had armor protection for the droid pilot, as well as a single, large laser cannon. They were transported to underwater battlefields inside specialized carriers.[2]
History
Edit
Many of these underwater craft were ripped to shreds by the riding beasts of the Mon Calamari Knights.[2]
The Xi Char provided underwater conversion kits for the MVR-3 speeder bike to the Trade Federation as compensation for the Xi Char failing to figure out how to make the manta droid subfighter transform like the Vulture-class droid starfighter.[1]
