Biker Advanced Recon Commando/Legends

The Barc Trooper, also known as the Biker Advanced Recon Commando is a specialized Clone trooper trained to handle the BARC speeders deployed during the Clone Wars. BARC troopers saw action during the last years of the Clone Wars and appear in the Revenge of the Sith. During the Battle of Kashyyyk, the BARC Troopers saw action against the Confederacy tank droids and Dwarf spider droids. The BARC trooper is one of the many specialized clone units bred on Kamino to operate new equipment introduced into the Army of the Republic. They are a specialized branch of the limited ARC Troopers trained to handle vehicles. BARC troopers work exclusively with BARC speeder bikes, and are trained to fly these vehicles at high speeds even across difficult terrain or dangerous battlefields. BARC troopers wear a modified variant of the regular Clone trooper armour, with a blinkered helmet that directs the trooper's view directly forwards, allowing him to better concentrate on his route. This helmet and armour is similar to that of the Galactic Empire's Scout troopers which also utilise speeder bikes.
