The Droideka Mark V was a droideka unit that was much bigger and stronger than past units. Unlike its predecessors, this one could be used as a droid or a pilot could fit into the cockpit on the "belly" of the droid and control it manually. The Mark V was not vulnerable when it was moving because when moving, it was essentially an armored metal ball. This version of the droideka was different from previous types not only in appearance but also in capabilities, as they were capable of switching between land to sky. It had CC-series blaster cannons, which allows them to combat infantry or vehicles, along with the unique ability to hold a person in their "belly." Like the original droideka, they utilized a shield to protect themselves from harm when they were deployed.
