Background
The Geonosian Starfighter, mainly known as the Nantex-class territorial defense starfighter, is a fighter manufactured for the Geonosians for them to use to defend their planet from any threats. The fighter is basically armed, with a laser turret in the center near the cockpit, but some variants are armed with warhead launchers.
The fighter was first used by the Geonosians long before the Clone Wars, and was used to defend the planet and maneuver through the asteroid field around the planet in ways that other vessels could not. These ships were used during the Clone Wars extensively by the Confederacy, and were used on many fronts.
