Geonosian Fighter
The Genosian Fighter is similar to Count Dooku's Solar Sailer, except it doesn't have the sail and is powered by a more ordinary engine. Genosian pilots can potentially spend years poised for action as their hardy species requires no sleep. A scent stimulator in the pilot's mask exploits the acute Genosian sense of smell to convey flight status feedback. The mask also sprays sub-verbal pheromone signals so that air marshals and flight controllers can remotely modify the pilot's mood and impart collective priorities.

Geonosian Speeder
A speeder used on the planet Geonosis. Count Dooku uses this to flee the
battle and escape to the Solar Sailer hangar. (If you took Darth Maul's
speeder bike, and elongated the back so that it looks like an x-wing nose,
that's about it.)
