AT-RT driver



AT-RT drivers, also known as AT-RT scouts, were clone troopers specially trained to pilot AT-RT walkers into battle. AT-RT drivers in the 41st Elite Legion saw action during the Battle of Kashyyyk, while others served in many other battles in the Clone Wars.

After the implementation of Order 66, these troops hunted down surviving Jedi, like High Jedi General Yoda on Kashyyyk.

Armor and equipment
Italic text"All these wookiees are dead." AT-RT drivers wore distinctive camouflaged armor and carried weapons such as a DC-15A blaster rifle, a DC-15S blaster, and a number of thermal detonators. Some AT-RT drivers were known to carry large weapons slung over their back in addition to their DC-15 rifles.

Their helmet featured a boosted-range comlink for when they were operating separate from their walkers (intentionally or otherwise). Also, to aid in their patrol and scouting duties, they often carried a circular life-form scanner attached to their breastplate.
