Phazon Harvester Drones were created by the Space Pirates exclusively for collecting Phazon. A single unit appears in Pirate Research on the Pirate Homeworld in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. They originated as Goliath-class heavy assault drones and were later converted by the Pirates. They are heavily armored; their anti-air weapon system is vulnerable to an overload, but hitting this area with weapons fire would only stun it. Samus Aran's Gunship can destroy it, but only after the planet's defense system generator is shut down. Destroying the Phazon Harvester Drone earns Samus a Friend Voucher, "Harvester Destroyed". This mechanoid is extremely durable and can be a nuisance to Samus, as it fires at the bridges she uses to get through Phazon Harvesting.
The Phazon Harvester Drone's appearance vaguely resembles Metroid Prime and a Leviathan Seed.

Logbook entry[]
Phazon Harvester Drone
Anti-air system cannot be destroyed, but overloading it will stun the drone.
Trivia[]
- When Samus has disabled the defense system, destroys the Leviathan, and then returns to Phazon Harvesting, she must first kill several Phaazoids in the room, exit two rooms, and then return before the Phazon Harvester Drone returns and can be destroyed.
