Programmed to exterminate its targets, no questions asked, this droid serves the Sith on their space and battle cruisers. They typically attack in large numbers.

Super Battle Droids: Previously manufactured by the Trade Federation at the onset of the Galactic Empire, the Kel Dor continued manufacturing these droids in secret for a short time, anticipating the day these droids would be used on the front line against the Jedi. Although outdated, these droids still have their use on unmanned vessels and freighters.

Security Droids: Once the occupation of a system ceased, these salvage droids were dispatched to search and retrieve any items of value. These large durable droids are very versatile and are able to move extremely large objects effortlessly. Once the occupations ended and the Sith had galactic control, these droid were reprogrammed as security droids. Their programming allows them to use a light saber.
