Heavy assault droid

The heavy assault droid was a variation of the B1 Battle droid, used by the Trade Federation during the Clone Wars. They was slightly more armoured the the standard infantry droid and had been programmed to be twice as accurate. Their assigned targets were enemy vehicles. They were equiped with a Rocket launcher, mines and Thermal detonators, as well as a Blaster pistol for self-defence.

Characteristics
During the Clone Wars, the heavy assault droids stood out from the standard battle droids, with their dark red torso, with occasionally other red markings, like Security droids. These droids were designed to tail the enemy vehicles and constantly barrage them with firepower on foot, so they were designed with tougher and stronger leg power, as well as a communications link, built into their head, to contant an ally if lost in the pursuit, of a vehicle.
