Separatist Sub-Carrier

The Separatist sub-carrier was a vehicle used to transport mini-subs piloted by individual B1 battle droids. The mini-subs would exit through tubes located on the underside of the carrier-vessel. This was a dangerous maneuver, as Galactic Republic SCUBA troopers often ambushed mini-subs on their way out, and there was no way of turning back once a sub was racing through the launch-tube.

The sub-carrier resembled a Vulture droid in shape, but dwarfed such craft in sheer size and volume. Each carrier was so big, entire skirmishes could be fought on the topside deck.

The Xi-Char provided the blueprints for the sub-carrier to the Trade Federation free of charge for not be able to figure out how to make the Manta droid subfighter transform like the Vulture droid.
