-Due to the extreme popularity of the Junker drone in the years after about YE 32, even making their way into [[nepleslia:nepleslian_arms_and_munitions|NAM]] use, there are now many sub-types which also see widespread use to various degrees. As with all Freespacer designs they tend to vary in exact design depending on who constructed them, meaning this list is in no way exhaustive, either.+Due to the extreme popularity of the Junker drone in the years after about YE 32, even making their way into [[corp:nepleslian_arms_and_munitions|NAM]] use, there are now many sub-types which also see widespread use to various degrees.

-About the size of a family car and often using four bulky 'wheel pods' instead of legs, their beetle-like shells are often customized for mining or base construction duty. They retain the ability to self-reproduce, but tend not to be used in combat roles, except for the odd occasion when they are specifically modified for it. The design is pre-[[yamatai:history:the_freespacer_genocide|genocide]], but became much more popular after the [[freespacers:astral_locksmiths|Astral Locksmiths]] began constructing their large-scale base on [[planet:arsenal|Arsenal]].+About the size of a family car and often using four bulky 'wheel pods' instead of legs, their beetle-like shells are often customized for mining or base construction duty.

-As useful and adaptable as the traditional Junker is, the large scale and expensive armament made it unsuitable for use by the new-wave, smaller and more independent craft such as the [[freespacers:nomad-class_solarfoil_corvette|Nomad]]. These craft typically support between four and six smaller Junkers, generally less than two feet in radius including the legs.+As useful and adaptable as the traditional Junker is, the large scale and expensive armament made it unsuitable for use by the new-wave, smaller and more independent craft such as the [[faction:freespacers:nomad-class_solarfoil_corvette|Nomad]].

-They entirely lack weapons, and must make do with a pair of crab-like claws to hold the ship's own supply of tools. Seeing as they fit inside of ship vents and corridors much easier, however, they are a favourite of [[freespacers:synthetic_intelligence|Type Fives]] who are in need of 'walking security cameras'.+They entirely lack weapons, and must make do with a pair of crab-like claws to hold the ship's own supply of tools.
