**A Partnered Vessel becomes the Droid's primary focus, defending it to the extreme, even its own destruction. Requires Holonet Transponder or similar components to "broadcast" new orders to the Droid.
Hardly the highlight of any naval engagement, these Droid Interceptors are more defensive in nature than the typical Droid Fighters of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Once, and still proud member of the Trade Barons of the Confederacy, Zenva was well aware of the effectiveness of Droid Interceptors; the Tri Droid in particular having exemplary records even against users of the Force. Now as Zenva finds herself allies with The Unblessed, a faction opposed to the growing influence of Force Sensitives, she's creating new lines of products towards the same goal.
The Guardian Class Saber Droid is designed to use superior speed, and Droid reflexes to overwhelm manned Fighters of nearly any classification. While it's weapons are not particularly powerful, the fire-linked weapons are capable of putting out an incredibly high number of shots in just moments. The quick response time of the Droid allows for optimum fire rate to power balance in any given situation at speeds a living being simply couldn't.
Once Partnered to another Vessel, typically the Ship deploying them, the Droid escorts and defends their Partner against any threat, even incoming missiles when able. At times literally placing their chassis between missiles and their Partnered Vessel should saturation of fire prove ineffective in destroying the threat.
With their speed, numbers, and volume of fire they are well suited to defending their partners from nearly any threat. Outrunning, and overwhelming Bombers, Fighters and more. Perfectly suited to screening out enemies in a blockade, or as Defenses for Carriers and Military stations alike.
