Imperial Sentry Droids were utilized by the Galactic Empire aboard its Imperial Cargo Ships. Should one of the activated sentry droids fall under attack, the remaining deactivated droids would power on.
History
It is unknown when the Imperial Sentry Droids went into service, though AP-5 was aware of their existence prior to joining the Rebellion. The Ghost Crew, Hondo Ohnaka, Azmorigan, and Melch later encountered several Sentry Droids aboard a cargo ship abandoned over planet Wynkahthu. One droid took Azmorigan and Zeb captive, and its compatriots were activated when Azmorigan foolishly attacked it with a blaster. The Sentry Droids attempted to eliminate the thieves as they were fleeing the ship, but failed and were lost with the vessel when it fell into Wynkahthu's storms.
Grand Admiral Thrawn was later shown to maintain Sentry Droids as sparring opponents.
