A standard Separatist Droid Army, as a primary tactical unit, consists of 218,000 battle droids and support droids. This formidable force represents the total surface component typically carried aboard a single Lucrehulk-class Battleship.
Understanding the Separatist Droid Army Structure
The Separatist Droid Army was organized into a hierarchical structure designed for large-scale planetary assaults and ground engagements. Its organization allowed for immense numbers of droids to be deployed and managed effectively in various tactical situations.
Army Composition
The largest tactical unit, the army, is composed of two corps. This structure ensures a comprehensive force capable of overwhelming ground defenses. The composition includes a mix of battle droids and various support droids essential for combat operations.
Sub-Units and Their Scale
To better understand the vastness of a full Droid Army, it's helpful to look at its constituent units:
- Corps: Each corps is a significant fighting force, made up of multiple divisions.
- Divisions: Divisions are further broken down into regiments, forming the core combat units.
- Regiments: These are the smallest units explicitly mentioned in this hierarchy, making up the divisions.
The following table provides a breakdown of the droid numbers at each level of the Separatist Army's tactical organization:
| Unit Type | Droid Count | Composition |
|---|---|---|
| Army | 218,000 | 2 Corps |
| Corps | 109,200 | 5 Divisions |
| Division | 21,840 | 5 Regiments |
This highly organized structure allowed the Confederacy of Independent Systems to deploy vast numbers of automated soldiers, making their ground forces a significant threat during the Clone Wars.
