Trident-class assault ship/Legends

"Unleash the Trident Drills!"

- Grievous commanding battle droids at the third battle of Kamino

A trident drill was a droid drilling ship used for stealthy, underwater assaults, as used in the Third Battle of Kamino.

The ships were partailly disassembled and attached to parts of Munificent-class frigates during the space battle above Kamino, and when the frigates were blown apart by the Galactic Republic fleet protecting the planet, the debris fell through the atmosphere and into the ocean surrounding Tipoca City. Aqua droids were deployed and assembled them underwater. After the drilling ships were completely assembled, they rose from the ocean and attacked the city. The opposing clone troopers could not damage the drills with their normal blasters, rifles, or hand blasters, but the drills were severly damaged towards the end of the battle when the clones used missile launchers. The battle was eventually lost by the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Their design was very much the same as the Trident ship that was used by the Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress, with the exception that they had a long drill attached to it. They also were able to deploy aqua droids. The ships were able to travel through water and air.
