The Viper Probe Droid is a deep-space exploration and reconnaissance probe droid used for long range scouting. It is equipped with a 360-degree array of sensors on a half-hemisphere head with a series of tentacle appendages beneath its chassis ending in pincers. It uses repulsorlifts as a primary means of locomotion and is equipped with a blaster.
Viper Probe Droid has had every external component painted black as night, with attempts to minimize the brightness of external lights and features. This allows this Viper Probe Droid to more easily blend into the shadows and darkness unseen.
Viper Probe Droid has had its sensor suites upgraded to significantly increase their range and sensitivity, allowing this Viper Probe Droid to collect and record a wide range of data during scouting operations. These sensors are far more sensitive to jamming interferance and are more prone to damage.
Viper Probe Droid has developed a predatory nature similar to those often associated with assassin droids. As a result, Viper Probe Droid 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 Viper Probe Droid.
