Phase II clone trooper armor was the standard issue armor of the Grand Army of the Republic's clone troopers during the later days of the Clone Wars.^[3] More advanced than its predecessor, it was capable of supporting more specialized equipment.^[6] Unlike the Phase I,^[7] the armor did not feature an internal life support system, necessitating the use of an external respirator in the absence of breathable atmosphere.^[8] Prototypes of the armor were first fielded sometime prior to the Battle of Ryloth, to be tested by the elite ARC troopers.^[9] After the reorganization of the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire, the kit would be retained by early stormtroopers until the introduction of their own unique armor set.^[3] However, the Empire's shocktroopers^[10] and Purge Troopers would continue to use the armor years after its replacement by most other branches. Purge Troopers would wear a lightsaber resistant version of the armor.^[11]
