- "I've heard that the new R3s are far faster in thinking skills and more powerful than the old R2 units."
- ―Ahsoka Tano
The R3-series astromech droid was part of the line of R-series astromech droids[2] manufactured by Industrial Automaton.[1] Thanks to their Intellex V processors,[9] R3 astromechs had faster processing abilities than the more common R2 units.[2] Typically, R3 units had transparent plastex domes that showed off their overclocked processors.[9] However, this was not always the case, as exemplified by R3-S6, who had an opaque dome.[3]
