OOM-series security droid

OOM-series security droids, also known as OOM security battle droids, were security droids of the Trade Federation and Confederacy of Independent Systems used for the purposes of defense and detection.

Security droids were characterized by red markings on their shoulders and upper abdomen, which distinguished them from other variants of the OOM model. They most commonly worked in squads led by an OOM command battle droid. Trade Federation security droids fulfilling their most common role as guards on capital ships carried the standard weapons (E-5 blaster rifles) used by similar models.

A type of B1-series battle droid, it was used in the Trade Federation's Droid Army, equipped with specialized programming. However, the targeting and coordination of the security droids was little better than that of their cousins, and often failed to consistently hit their target. The OOM security battle droid model saw varied use after the Clone Wars.
