Dwarf Spider Droid
developed by the Commerce Guild, the dwarf spider droid was used to infiltrate enemy lines and provide intelligence back to a homing spider droid. Sometimes called burrowing spider droids, these combat automata were armed with a laser cannon and move into underground mines and caves to reach their targets. A suite of infrared photoreceptors allowed the spider droid to locate its target. With the end of the Clone Wars, all dwarf spider droids were issued orders to deactivate, as part of Darth Sidious' plan to consolidate military power and ensure the loyalty of his troops.
