A 1:1 scale Droid Tri-Fighter, also known as the tri-droid fighter or simply tri-fighter, was a deadly Confederacy droid starfighter designed as a fast, agile and powerful space-superiority starfighter, built to excel in dogfighting. It would be used in large numbers in the later parts of the Clone Wars by the Confederation of Independent Systems. The fighter was armed with one heavy laser cannon protruding from the central ball, and two to six missiles of variable payloads were housed within each arm.
