Bongo Advanced Scouts were a type of Gungan Tribubble bongo and were used as submersible frigates, and were armed with one booma launcher. They featured three bubble-like cockpits, one set on either end of the ship and one in the middle set on the engine block, and had one pilot and one gunner. The ship was driven by a propeller, and cost 90 units of carbon and 20 units of nova crystals.
The Bongo Advanced Scouts were first produced around the time of the War of the Gungan tribes in 3000 BBY by the Bongomeken Collective. Over three-thousand years later, the Gungans were still using these ships in 32 BBY during the Trade Federation occupation of their planet, Naboo. Three of them escorted Gungan Transport Ships carrying Boss Rugor Nass and other survivors from the Naboo Swamp Battle to the Gungan Sacred Place. The three engaged Trade Federation frigates and large hostile creatures.
Bongo Advanced Scouts appear in the 2001 video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds and its 2002 expansion pack. They are the Gungan advanced frigate units.
