The Homing spider droid is a battle droid manufactured for anti-vehicular combat by the Commerce Guild from the fictional Star Wars. Like the other battle droids deployed by the Commerce Guild, the Homing spider droids were originally developed to enforce the Guild's laws and making sure that its customers paid their debts. It was effective against both ground based and airborne targets. The homing spider could cover wide areas of the battlefield with its four all terrain legs. Its chief weapons were two dish-shaped laser cannons that bombarded enemy targets with sustained fire. There are also weapon mounts that allow other arnaments to be fixed to the droid. Sensor equipment fitted into the homing spider enables it to target and keep track of moving enemy targets. The homing spider droid first appeared during the Battle of Geonosis where they fought the Army of the Republic. They were later deployed during the Clone Wars and fought on many battles.
