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 AD has developed a personality around the concept of a caretaker. It has assumed the needs of Zeon Blacktooth to be its prime directive, even such tasks that have not been requested of it. This results in R3 AD often flitting about in an attempt to meet any possible task before it is necessary, including menial tasks.
R3 AD has had its sensor suites upgraded to significantly increase their range and sensitivity, allowing this R3-series Astromech Droid to collect and record a wide range of data during scouting operations. These sensors are far more sensitive to jamming interferance and are more prone to damage.
Zeon Blacktooth has painstakingly cared for this R3-series Astromech Droid, and even upon close examination it appears as though R3 AD was freshly off the manufacturing line. Absent of any scratches, dents or even the slightest imperfections, the only thing missing is the new droid smell.
