DESCRIPTION

Primarily deployed within secure Imperial research installations, Moff palaces, and military black sites, the BAF-09 provides comprehensive tactical support, autonomous threat resolution, and high-level deterrence to the Galactic Empire.

Built to suppress internal threats such as assassination attempts, sabotage cells, or Force-sensitive insurgents, it prioritizes loyalty to its assigned authority and quick, decisive action. Its modularity allows it to be armed for hostage situations, urban warfare, or infiltration deterrence.

However, it is not without drawbacks. As with many high-performance Imperial designs, its production scale remains limited, and its AI while powerful sometimes edges toward ruthlessness when not properly calibrated.
