Sith jet trooper armor used integrated jetpacks.
During the Battle of Exegol, Resistance forces attempted to deploy the Fortitude onto the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast. The Sith Eternal's ground forces were sent to repel the enemy, accompanied by Sith jet troopers who deployed from Sith Transporters who laid waste to the exposed soldiers. However, the Resistance forces managed to break the Sith lines and eventually destroyed the fleet.
Making up part of the ranks of the Sith Eternal army, Sith jet troopers wore the same specialized stormtrooper armor design worn by the First Order's jet troopers, albeit colored red instead of white. Their armor featured an integrated NJP-900 integrated jetpack, which allowed for a high degree of mobility, making them a dangerous enemy. Additionally, they wielded F-11ABA heavy blaster cannons that were capable of laying waste to enemy forces.
Sith Jetpack Troopers first appeared in the 2019 young readers book First Order Villains.
