HV-7

HV-7s were a type of loader droid that was in use alongside CCLs and IW-37 pincer loader droids at a shipyard on the planet Corellia. The yard had been controlled by the Nightsister Morgan Elsbeth during the reign of the Galactic Empire, but had been taken over by the New Republic by around 9 ABY. establishes that The Mandalorian is set about five years after the events of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 4 ABY. Therefore, the events of The Mandalorian must have taken place around 9 ABY. As states that Ahsoka is set in the same time period as The Mandalorian, it must also be set around 9 ABY.
However, the facility continued to be used by Elsbeth in secret, causing New Republic General Hera Syndulla and former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano to investigate it. During the investigation, Tano questioned Regional Supervisor Myn Weaver about the droids used in the facility, and Weaver mentioned the HV-7s along with several others. After Elsbeth's continued use of the shipyard was then uncovered, many of the staff were then arrested by the New Republic.
