Clone swamp trooper



Clone swamp troopers served as specialised scouts in the Grand Army of the Republic. These clone troopers wore a very similar design of armor to that worn by the clone scout troopers and the later Imperial scout troopers.



Swamp trooper armor was camouflaged for use in or around mires and boggy land. The troopers carried DC-15A blaster rifles and DC-15S blasters. They would sometimes be assigned BARC speeders for mounted reconnaissance duty, and could thus look very similar to BARC troopers, who also wore a form of clone scout armor. Swamp trooper training focused on wetland combat techniques, entailing maneuvers in deep mud or similarly treacherous terrain. A unit of clone swamp troopers was in the 41st Elite Legion, led by Clone Commander Gree. They wore dull green colors while fighting in the Battle of Kashyyyk during the Clone Wars.

These clones were possibly among the predecessors of the Imperial scout troopers.

Behind the scenes
