Imperial jumptrooper



A Jump trooper was a variant of the Imperial stormtrooper. A hose connected their helmet to a breathing tank on their chest armor. Jump troopers were equipped wiht a jetpack to get around the battlefield quickly. Their longe-range rail detonator went beyond standard Imperial-issued weaponry, and could effectivly eliminate a target from any vantage point. These troopers were stationed on Felucia and the Death Star shortly before the Battle of Yavin IV.

Behind the scenes

 * The jump trooper's helmet looks like an upgrade from Commander Cody's helmet, and so also close to a scout trooper's helmet.
 * The title of "jump trooper" comes from Hasbro toy catalogues.
