OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
The "Listener Mk. II" Droid is the improved eyes, ears, and when needed, the gag and blindfold of the Crossroads military. The craft is designed to improve upon the older droid craft and can move far more freely thanks to its more flexible airframe and its improved avionics. Maintenance is much easier thanks to the fact the droid's internal systems have now been better optimized. These improvements have been added to new manufacturing techniques and impetus and the craft is now able to be fielded in far larger numbers.

- The Mark II is made of stronger Laminasteel alloy instead of Alusteel, and its internal wiring is highly-improved and lightened, making it easier to maintain.
- Powerful engines allow this craft to reach high speeds.
- Reentry shields allow for coming in and out atmosphere seamlessly.
- Deflector shields for absorbing even some missile hits and laser cannon hits.
- Targeting sensors allow for the craft to use its EWAR suite at selected areas or targets.
- Has a built-in self-destruct contingency if it is badly damaged and unable to return or otherwise in danger of capture.
- Improved avionics, making the craft much more stable in atmospheric flight and in space flight.
- Very Advanced ECM Jammer and sensors built into the disco on top of the craft. It is capable of overwhelming most sensors and scanners and damaging lighter-built ones as well as causing a great deal of interference in comms systems. It is also capable of detecting starfighters, starships, and even ground vehicles and personnel as well as comms traffic that it isn't jamming and can potentially tap into this traffic and sends the encrypted traffic back to base for decryption and/or analysis.
- Advanced counter measures allow this craft to jam incoming missiles and break locks.
- Strong self-preservation programming, these craft will detect and analyze threats long before they are engaged take steps to escape and evade or call for help.
- Able to jam enemy sensors and scanners over a wide area or a small single target to assist combat fighters and bombers.
- Quite fast for an EWAR craft.
- Completely autonomous.
- Easy to manufacture.
- Has no hyperdrive.
- Its large disc on top makes it a bit of a large target.
- Vulnerable to intercept by enemy fighters.
- Has no hard-kill defense or offensive capability.
