R5 series astromech droid

The R5 line was part of the R-series astromech droids manufactured by Industrial Automaton. R5 astromechs were low cost, but plagued with malfunctions. The droid designated as R5-D4 was one of the last units produced in that line. Droids of this line were subject to defects and often had bad attitudes. They were considered cut-price versions of superior R2 units.
