The Type-30 Orbital Drop Sensor Beacon was a special use equipment designed and produced by the Mikaru Corporation. The Device was primarily a large metal shell designed to survive atmospheric entry and high speed impact on the ground. Once the unit hits the ground it buries itself 7 feet in via impact velocity, then, once secured it would deploy. A 7 foot stalk would rise up out of the inside of the pod, and open up, revealing a sensor, satellite uplink, positioning lights, emergency flares, and a small droid brain that operated all the equipment and its defensive rotary blaster.
