R4-P17 was the designation of the astromech droid attached to Obi-Wan Kenobi's Delta-7 Aethersprite-class starfighter and Eta-2 Actis-class inteceptor prior to and during the Clone Wars.

The droid originally possessed the R4-series's trademark conical head dome, but was involved in a messy incident while trying to repair a trash compactor at the Kuat Drive Yards research shipyards, resulting in the droid being crushed. Anakin Skywalker, on an visit to the shipyards to inspect the Jedi customizations to the Delta-7, found R4's wreck and rebuilt her with an R2-series dome. Now the community property of the Jedi Temple, R4 became the prototype for other integrated droid navigators in Jedi ships.

R4-P17 later lost her head coverings due to a buzz droid attack in the Battle of Coruscant while aboard General Kenobi's Eta-2 Actis-class interceptor, and the droid was lost for good when the rear half of Invisible Hand broke off while Skywalker and Kenobi tried to land the damaged flagship.

Behind the scenes

 * R4-P17 was originally supposed to be on one of the posts in the Geonosian execution arena along with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padmé Amidala, and Anakin Skywalker. However, this was changed, and her death appeared in the Second Battle of Coruscant.
