PDV
the PDV was an Imperial Intelligence Tech 4 message pod used by Sector Plexus. PDV stands for Plexus Droid Vessel, for these pods were manned only by droids. The standard "crew" consisted of a captain I2-AM3 (a modified R2 astromech droid), an I2-CG droid for storage and transceiving, and an analysis/encoding computer equipped with a TranLang III communications madule. These ships were designed to send and receive Sector Plexus messages in a system, then jump to the next system. They never had a jump longer than a day, due to their efficient routing algorithms.
