DESCRIPTION

Constructed in 900 ABY by the BX Primary Construction Node on the city-planet of Skako, the AR-S Siege Battle Droid was engineered specifically to break through enemy defenses and support offensives against mechanized vehicles. Standing nearly twenty feet tall, the AR-S boasts a bulky frame, reinforced plating, and an array of devastating weaponry designed for heavy bombardment.

Its shoulder-mounted missile launchers deliver explosive projectiles capable of breaching reinforced positions. In addition, its hands are equipped with Electrostaff-like clawed hands are optimized for dismantling smaller vehicles, providing essential support in chaos-ridden skirmishes and open-engagements on the battlefield.

However, this pragmatic superiority comes at a cost. Its considerable size makes it vulnerable; it can easily draw the concentrated fire from squads of enemy infantry and artillery. Tactical placements by commanders are crucial, as ignoring cover can lead to rapid decommissioning of the droid before it fulfills its role.
