Background: Scout trooper armor was the standard armor worn by the Imperial scout troopers. Scout troopers were only armored on their head and upper body, allowing them more maneuverability. Their helmet featured an electromagnetics vision enhancement visor and a boosted comlink system for long-range communication. Their helmets could also be retracted while still worn, allowing the wearer’s face to be revealed, unlike regular stormtrooper helmets. Under their armor, they wore a body glove. Their cummerbund had two pouches commonly used for storing survival rations. They had a power unit backpack on the back of their breastplate, which could also store extra gear. In their boot was a holster for their EC-17 hold-out blaster pistol.
