Each Swarm-class drone was packed with power generators for weapons and engines, battery coils to house two enteched life forces, sensors, and a drive unit. The power generators use fusion energy, and produce easily-trackable radiation trails. Maneuverability is achieved through the use of four small thrusters mounted around the outside of the ship. Each thruster can be independently angled to provide incredible turning ability. Each corner of the drone is armed with a laser cannon which has 360-degree rotation. They are remotely controlled by Ssi-ruuvi command cruisers which transmit directions to the drone's enteched life energies.

After the Jedi willingly stripped the crop stubble of their sargheet, and did it exceptionally well, she realized that he was someone who could be trusted and had Dagro's best interests at heart. Her newfound trust in the Jedi was rewarded when Obi-Wan turned over a huge sum of credits to the sargheet farmers, the bounty that the Old Republic had been offering for the recovery of Separatist equipment, after Kirlan and a group of others helped Obi-Wan locate and capture a rogue crawl-carrier.
