R4-G9/Legends

R4-G9 was a bronze domed astromech droid that was assigned to Obi-Wan Kenobi as replacement for R4-P17 who was destroyed onboard Obi-Wan's Eta starfighter.

On the planet of Utapau, Kenobi commanded R4 to pilot the ship away to trick the MagnaGuard while he could search for General Grievous hiding on the planet.
