Imperial shock trooper/Legends

The Imperial Shock Trooper or Imperial Heavy Weapons Specialist was a member of the artillery division of the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps. Shock troopers were known for carrying out suprise assaults (hence "shock" trooper), attacking with massive amounts of firepower. They were armed with MiniMag PLT rocket launchers as well as mines and thermal detonators.

Behind the Scenes
In the two Star Wars Battlefront video games, the shock trooper takes the armor of an Imperial stormtrooper squad leader with a bright orange pauldron.
