The A-LT Utility Droid was a model of domed and tread-wheeled droid. Although they were designed as astromech droids, A-LTs were often adapted for more menial tasks. For example, some had their domes removed, which exposed their cranial circuitry but allowed them to serve food and drinks on a tray.[1] One such unit, PA-LT4, had the said modifications to serve the guests aboard Dryden Vos' yacht, First Light.[2] During the Galactic Civil War, both the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic used modified A-LTs to bypass walls and overload the circuitry of enemy turrets on the battlefield.[3]
The dome of an A-LT was compatible with the body of an R-series astromech droid.[4]
