The R2-series Astromech Droid is a popular line of astromech droids designed to fit in the droid socket of any starfighter. It is commonly designed with a domed or tapered code head, with a cylindrical core in addition to a base, retractable tread leg and two main legs. It has multiple appendages and attachments within its compartments, such as shock prods, welding torches, and is equipped with a holoprojector and a periscope that has a probe function which is usable in space.
R2-ZE has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this R2-series Astromech Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
R2-ZE has been modified from standard design parameters to be fitted with reinforced plating. As a result, when compared side by side with the standard R2-series Astromech Droid, R2-ZE is found to be more durable while its ability to move has been inhibited.
R2-ZE has developed a predatory nature similar to those often associated with assassin droids. As a result, R2-ZE will often approach a situation with the mind set of a hunter, and convey their findings as such. This can be disconcerting to others who are unaccustomed to R2-ZE.
