- "Let's at least remind them that we're still here."
- ―Armitage Hux ordering First Order fleet engineers to shoot at the Resistance fleet
First Order fleet engineers, also known as fleet gunners, served the First Order, notably aboard the Supremacy[1] and aboard Star Destroyers like the Finalizer.
History[]
Fleet gunners served aboard First Order Star Destroyers during the First Order-Resistance War. In 34 ABY they manned the guns on the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Finalizer[3] and the Mega-class Star Dreadnought Supremacy. During the Battle of D'Qar and subsequent Battle of Oetchi, fleet gunners onboard the Supremacy fired at the retreating Resistance fleet. Brun Obatsun was a fleet engineer during this time.[1]
Uniform[]
First Order fleet engineers wore black uniforms, work gloves, and boots. The First Order insignia was displayed on the uniform's shoulders. They also wore black, swooping helmets with a face visor displaying targeting data.[1]
