Picador Group, an exceptional starfighter squadron within the CIS Navy throughout the Clone Wars, deployed Nantex-class starfighters. These fighters were equipped with turbolaser cannons, specifically designed to engage capital ships in combat. The unit's designation originated either from Geonosian picadors, the drones holding esteemed roles in managing the Petranaki arena located on Geonosis, or from the Picador's spear, a weapon utilized in the Geonosian martial art known as Petranaki.
