Where is it stated these droids are called hunter/killers? The only HK mentioned in Stark Hyperspace War is the Trade Fed proto-battle droid, specifically called a Hunter-Killer by Quinlan Vos - Kwenn 17:49, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- No, the leader of Xucphra calls the floating orbs hunter/killers. issue 2 about page 25:

- Ah, didn't see that. Seems a bit strange to have two droids in the same comic referred to by almost identical names - Kwenn 18:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, it does. My conclusion is that hunter-killer is not a specific model, but a general type of droid, like "battle droid" and "assassin droid." Note there are at least four kidns of "hunter killers"--the giant HK probots in Dark Empire, the HK protocol droids in KOTOR, the HK "proto-B1"s in this SHW, and the floating remote-like HKs in SHW. :)
- There are also Hunter-Seeker droids, which are roughly analogous to these H/Ks. Also, the B-1 style H-K is also referred to as an "armed security droid" - Kwenn 18:32, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- I believe a disambig for all Hunter-Killers is in order. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision)
