The B2 Super Battle Droid or commonly known as the Super Battle Droid is a Battle Droid created by the Techno Union for the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars era. B2 Super Battle Droids are kinda of like their old counterparts but are more tough than them. The B2 Super Battle droid, also known as the Super battle droid or 'super/supers' in clone slang, was a Battle droid used and by the CIS and their allies during the Clone Wars. The B2 Super battle droid was an upgraded version of the B1 Battle droid.
- Manufacturer:The Techno Union
- Affiliation: The Techno Union, Closed-Market
- Model: B-2
Production: Minor
- Modularity: Can be outfitted for different forms of terrain.
- Material: Alusteel Casing, Frasium Coating, Droid Circuitry
- Classification: Class IV
- Weight: 126 Kg
- Height: 2.13 M
- Movement: Bipedal
- Armaments:
- Wrist Mounted Double Blaster Cannon
- Wrist Mounted Rocket Launcher
- Internal Thermal Detonator
- Misc. Equipment:
- Back-Embedded Rocket pack
- Heavy Targeting Optics
- Integrated Acumen Suite
- Redundant Circuitry and Backup Power Cell: The B-2 Super Battle Droid is meant to be the superior of the B-1 Battledroid. Unlike the B-1 Battledroid this unit was built with a hearty resistance to EMP/ION technology. The interior of the droid is made of a complex wiring and circuitry that keeps the droid online, however there is also a backup power cell that will be activated if the main power cell is destroyed or deactivated via EMP technology. The secondary power cell is encased within a magnetically sealed Alusteel case that keeps It safe from EMP/ION weaponry.
- Detonation: Each Super Battle Droid has a small Thermal Detonator that can only be triggered one of two ways. Droid Commanders possess detonation codes and commands that can be used to trigger the detonation if they feel there is a strategic advantage to the detonation. Every droid can self-detonate their thermal detonator if they are at risk of being destroyed and believe they can eliminate their enemy with the blast, or if they are captured by enemy units.

- Reinforced Armor: The B-2 Battle Droid is secured in a durable Alusteel casing with a thin Frasium coating. The Alusteel is an incredibly durable metal that gives the droids protection from blasters, slugthrowers, ION weaponry, Rail Technology and even some blows from standard lightsabers.
- Firepower: The Super Battle Droid's are equipped with wrist mounted blaster cannons that produce sustained rapid-fire blasts. The blasts are extremely hard to block and dodge due to the speed and power behind the rounds.
- Sustained Flight: The jetpacks the droid's utilize allow them up to an hour of sustained flight, helping them travel over large distances and work well as armored scouts.
- Slow Advancing: The B-2 Battledroids are extremely large and incapable of moving at fast speeds, save for with their jetpacks. Like the B-1 Battledroids they have unagile bodies that do not maneuver well.
- Large Target: The large armored bodies of the B-2 Battledroids are very easy to pick out in most terrain and are large targets for blaster fire and ordinance.
An upgraded version of the B-1 Battledroid, the B-2 Super Battle Droids are built for sustained warfare and eliminating everything in their path. While the B-1 Battledroid's are considerably lengthy and rather frail at the joints, the B-2's solved this problem by encasing the droid in an Alusteel shell. This shell is designed to take considerable damage before it will ever give out or put the droid's power cell at risk.
Like the B-2 Battldroids from the Clone Wars, the Techno Unions upgraded version is equipped with wrist mounted blaster cannons. These blaster cannons are built with a rapid fire function as well as a small power cell with a vent that help the blaster from overheating as fast as previous models. Along with a wrist mounted rocket launcher the droid's are also equipped with a rocket pack that helps them travel the terrain that is before them.
Programmed as a marching unit to destroy everything in their way, the Super Battle Droid's are designed to crush the enemies of the Confederacy and any who use them. They are equipped with little defense for their processors and databanks, making those a target for their enemies to hack. However, each droid is embedded with a thermal detonator in the chassis that will be detonated if the droid is captured or surrounded. These Droids are not likely to be taken prisoner.

One of the main design flaws of the standard B1 battle droid was its reliance on a Droid Control Ship to provide a signal; if the ships were disabled, the battle droids would become useless. To remedy this, the super battle droid did not rely on such a signal and had a greater capacity for independence. However, the droid still operated best with a command signal, otherwise they tended to forget about enemies as soon as they moved out of visual range. Also, the sturdy frame of the super battle droid was larger and more heavily armored than those of a B1.
Unlike its predecessor, the B2's delicate processing unit and signal receptor were buried deep inside the torso, offering much more protection from enemy fire. Small dual laser cannons were mounted on their right and/or left forearms, along with a tri-shot weapon system. Though they could use external weaponry, their large hands had difficulty with smaller blasters. Instead, they were equipped with special blaster rifles that only responded to signal emitters built into the hands. For the sake of efficiency, they used many B1 parts. Their feet were also outfitted with specialized equipment for difficult terrain, such as climbing claws. Their arms also were modular, capable of exchanging their laser cannon for grenade launchers and other specialized weaponry.
When they were not using their built-in laser cannons, they had their right forearm locked upright.
As heavy infantry droids, B2s could take much more punishment than their flimsy predecessors. Even after being defeated, they could detach their torsos and keep up an attack although this was detrimental to their combat skill. Despite such traits some models seemingly suffered low heat tolerance and were subject to bursting into flame upon contact.
Most post-Battle of Geonosis B2 droids were capable of communicating with each other using an oversimplified version of Galactic Basic Standard.

Very Nice Job
Super Battle Droids are very tough in Republic Commando

I didn't know that about the B2's could survive with out their lower body.And also about the arms either.
Very awesome rendering looks like you could walk on by them since their looking like guards as well and good polished look to them

They look so real
You can pat yourself on the back and eat a kudos bar cuz this rendering is definitely a keeper!

Dam, and it is so old render...i have to make a refresh
It'd be really something to see it redone seeing as how well you made the first
Maybe you could even have them firing at something
Cool, reminds me of the walkway/ramp leading out of the Cantina on Bespin in The Force Unleashed. Good work!

okkk tell me when it grabs u by the arm and blasts u in the chest
i want to hug a B2 battledroid...intresting how he would react to it....
Should you not include where both the scene and model came from?
they came from e mule in a search of 3D models, don't know exactly the source.
Wonderful scene I'd be very wary if I needed to go down those stairs (...or indeed up lol)!
i would jump on their heads where they can't see me and would look the wrong way..... lol but wonderful still.. i thought these were statues for a moment
