Canon Legends version → Linked from 10 articles

R5-A2 was an R5 series astromech droid with orange and white paneling and black sensors. It stood ninety-seven centimeters tall and, like all R-series units, was manufactured by Industrial Automaton. In 1 BBY, it was present in the spaceport of Mos Eisley on the planet Tatooine, where it rolled across the intersection of Corporations Road and Dune Street in front of a group of Imperial stormtroopers questioning the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and the moisture farmer Luke Skywalker while the pair sat in a X-34 landspeeder.
