Batch 4652-A

Batch 4652-A was a batch of over twenty-six thousand B1-series battle droids manufactured at the Akiva production plant and deployed to Hakara around 22 BBY during the early Clone Wars. During their service against the Republic Military, the droids displayed demonstrated poor combat performance, with less than five percent having survived through confrontation with Republic forces. As such, the droid C-5DS communicated the poor performance to Poreni the chief supervisor of the production plant on behalf of General Grievous. Poreni promised to improve the next batch and offered a twenty percent discount on it, which C-5DS accepted as a discount on all B1 orders going forward.

In 3 ABY, the scoundrel Kay Vess discovered four transmissions between Poreni and C-5DS that included the discussion regarding batch 4652-A.
