R5-J2

Canon Legends version → Linked from 9 articles

R5-J2 was an Imperial modified R5 series astromech droid stationed on board the Death Star II superweapon while the battle station was under construction in the Endor system. The droid was present in one of the Death Star's hangars for the arrival of the Sith Lord Darth Vader on board the station in 4 ABY. R5-J2 was then also present in the hangar for the arrival of Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine shortly before the Alliance to Restore the Republic attacked the Death Star. The astromech was still stationed on board the superweapon during the battle, which ended with the station's destruction.
