2,856 per GGW

An aerial recon trooper was a clone jet trooper trained with aerial reconnaissanceskills to monitor Separatist forces from the air and relay the location of specific enemy positions to their squad members on the ground.

Aerial recon troopers were used by the Grand Army of the Republic in response to key enemy threats to clone platoons.

Armor
In addition to being outfitted in white Phase I armor, with light- and dark-green designs to mark their squad affiliation, aerial recon troopers wore jetpacks on their backs for aerial maneuverability. They also wore macrobinoculars on their helmets and carried special communications equipment to relay key tactical information.

Kit
Aerial recon troopers used the DC-15S blaster carbine as a compact alternative to the standard-issue DC-15A blaster rifle. Jetpacks featured built-in warheads, which would cause devastating blasts against enemy units, and a utility belt to carry extra equipment.
