The combat speeder was a model of repulsorcraft used by General Grievous, the Confederacy of Independent Systems' Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies, during the Clone Wars. Following Grievous' belief in authority and lethality, the speeder featured a powerful turbine engine, a pair of laser cannons, and recessed rocket launchers in the forward prow. The craft was steered by a simple column connected to the directional vanes.
History
Around 20 BBY,[3] Grievous used his speeder in his campaign to conquer the planet Florrum,[1] where he used it to chase Hondo Ohnaka, his remaining pirates, and a group of Jedi Younglings in order to prevent them from retreating Florrum.[2]
