RM-2020 espionage droid

RM-2020 espionage droids were a model from MerenData. They were equipped with an espionage hardwired module, a barrel-shaped and roughly humanoid body, an information recording/coded broadcasting system, a repulsorlift engine, sensors (ultraviolet, infrared, analysis, and visual/audio), and a vocabulator. They were 1 meter tall and cost 160,000 credits new (100,000 used on the black market). Their primary function was to gather intelligence on battlefields to bring back to bases. They could be programmed for sabotage and infiltrating enemy camps. The droids were skilled with energy weapons, and Churhee's Riflemen modified several of the droids as combat units, only to have them confiscated by the Galactic Empire. An infamous RM-2020 was Armx.
