Description: Developed by Haor Chall Engineering to mark their re-entrance into the Galactic market, the second model of the Variable Geometry Self-Propelled Battle Droid is ready to take the market by storm. Or not, in all likelihood. The new Vulture Droid MK II is similar in both its weaponry load out and aesthetics, but advancing propulsion and artificial intelligence technologies are what truly differentiate the MK II from its predecessor. In essence, it is a modernized Vulture Droid that now surpasses the antiquated (yet still lethal) Valahari variant.

New artificial intelligence technology implemented in the Vulture II allow it to execute more intricate maneuvers and dog-fighting tactics that can be considered on-par with regular organic pilots. In times of duress, the Vulture II also has the ability to act as an anti-personnel walker, able to alter the power of its fore-mounted energy torpedo launchers to allow it to fire in less powerful bursts that are exceedingly hazardous to infantry. The ability of the Vulture II to transition seamlessly from an airborne configuration to a walking one make it a great tool in scouting and reconnaissance on planetary surfaces.

Of course, at the end of the day, it still is just a droid brain- advanced or not. It will forever lack the true finesse and skill of a living pilot and will certainly be prone to failing haplessly against unconventional strategy.
