The
Variable Geometry Self-Propelled Battle Droid, Mark I (also known as the
Vulture-class droid starfighter or simply as the
Vulture droid) was a
droid starfighter used by the
Trade Federation. Later, in much greater numbers, it was utilized by the
Confederacy of Independent Systems. It participated heavily in the
Clone Wars, at engagements such as the
Battle of Kamino and
Coruscant.
Like most of the Trade Federation's armed forces, it carried no living pilot, but rather a droid brain that was linked to a central control computer, often aboard a Lucrehulk-class Droid Control Ship. Each Trade Federation battleship carried 1,500 such droid starfighters.
