KP-1 was a K-series droid
The K-series[1] was a type of astromech droids who were active during the Imperial[2] and New Republic Eras.[3] Their heads resembled the R-series line of astromechs, particularly the R2 series astromech droids. In 9 BBY,[4] KP-1, a masculine astromech droid[1] associated with the Hidden Path, was found on the planet Jabiim.[2] During the New Republic Era around in 9 ABY[5] a few K-series astromechs could be found on the droid bar The Resistor, on Plazir-15.[3]

Star Wars: The Mandalorian — "Chapter 22: Guns for Hire"
- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi to 9 BBY. Therefore, the events of "Part V" must be set in 9 BBY.
- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Chapter 1: The Mandalorian" of The Mandalorian Season One to 9 ABY. In addition, "A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 also dates "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Timelines. "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" takes place after the conflict on Mandalore, which is the main event depicted in "Chapter 23: The Spies" and "Chapter 24: The Return," the final two episodes of The Mandalorian Season Three. Therefore, Seasons One through Three of Star Wars: The Mandalorian, the latter of which includes "Chapter 22: Guns for Hire," must all be set in 9 ABY as well.
