The HMP (Heavy Missile Platform) droid gunship, also known as the HMP Predator gunship, Droid Heavy Missile Platform, or droid gunship, was a model of repulsorlift airspeeder created by Geonosians and manufactured by Baktoid Fleet Ordnance and Haor Chall Engineering Corporation. Operated by an advanced droid brain, they were used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. They were heavily armed with missile pods, and seven laser cannons. Droid gunships were also used to transport B1-series battle droids, B2-series super battle droids, and BX-series droid commandos by use of racks and could deploy them into battle.
