Also, two commandos on Saleucami formed a sniper team, one acting as the shooter with a sniper rifle and the other using electrobinoculars, performing as the spotter. They were also known to use grenades against enemy emplacements.

In addition to this, the leader of a droid commando unit often carried a vibrosword for close-combat purposes. The equipment of the droid commandos included E-5 blaster rifles, a stun baton to knock out enemies, and a fusioncutter, used to cut down doors and other obstacles in their path. Three commando droids wielding blaster rifles. Apparently, the head was weaker than the rest of its body, as Senator Amidala was able to easily kill one by shooting it in the head with an ELG-3A royal blaster pistol, which was hardly bigger than a hold-out blaster. This made the droids a fairly rare sight on the battlefield and thus made them to be used exclusively on special and or critical missions only. The only real drawback of these droids was that they were far more expensive to produce than the regular infantry. However, sustained barrages or a single headshot could overwhelm them, but like super battle droids and IG-100 MagnaGuards, at least one unit confronting Eeth Koth was sliced in half, but remained operational long enough for Koth to render it inoperable with a stab to the head. The droid commandos were built to be substantially faster and stronger than a regular battle droid, and also possessed heavier armor that was capable of withstanding multiple shots from most blasters. In addition to this, the droids were capable of modulating their voices to match that of others, though they could not accurately copy their mannerisms or vocabulary, nor respond properly to unexpected situations outside of combat. This, along with their humanoid shape, allowed them to fit into a clone trooper's armor. They had the same operating abilities as B1 battle droids, with the addition of infiltration software. The captain would also have a vibrosword. Unit leaders, which were ranked as captains, were fitted with white marks on their brows and chestplates. Their voices were notably different compared to the B1 series, sounding more akin to the deep voices of B2 super battle droids. These battle droids appeared similar to the B1-Series battle droid series notable changes include two white photoreceptors, in addition to the long head being shortened to half its original size.
