The R3-series Astromech Droid is a successor to the popular line of R2 astromech droids with faster processing abilities designed to fit in the droid socket of any starfighter. It is commonly designed with a domed or tapered code head, with a cylindrical core in addition to a base, retractable tread leg and two main legs. It has multiple appendages and attachments within its compartments, such as shock prods, welding torches, and is equipped with a holoprojector and a periscope that has a probe function which is usable in space.
R3-series Astromech Droid has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this R3-series Astromech Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
R3-series Astromech Droid has received advanced automated repair programming based on the original R3-series Astromech Droid schematics, giving it an ability to perform or assist in the performance of self-diagnosis and self-repair of its mechanical systems. This system engages automatically upon damage, and can render the droid temporarily unavaialble while it assesses any necessary repairs before further action can be taken.
R3-series Astromech Droid has developed a quirked personality, granting it an inclination towards heavy doses of sarcasm when engaged in dialogue. As a result, R3-series Astromech Droid comes across as having issues taking direction and developed a reputation for 'snark'.
